With a large and growing cash balance, there’s a tremendous amount of optionality here for Dan to help us grow our per share value over time. ”

"Since being introduced to ibex well over a year ago, I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the company’s strong foundation, powerful growth engine and differentiated customer value propositions; together these factors provide a long runway for sustained growth and increases in per share value,” said Bellehsen. “The culture here has blown me away and the team continues to execute at an increasing level. All this said, there is an incredible opportunity ahead for this business, and I am eager to help unlock the company’s value in the public markets.”
