Mayville Engineering Company (NYSE: MEC) (the “Company” or “MEC”), a leading value-added provider of design, prototyping and manufacturing solutions serving diverse end-markets, today announced that Todd Butz, Chief Financial Officer, intends to leave the Company on June 30, 2025.

Following a rigorous internal and external search process, Rachele Lehr, Chief Human Resources Officer, has been named to succeed Mr. Butz as Chief Financial Officer, effective April 22, 2025, following the annual meeting of shareholders.

With more than 25 years of cross-functional experience across corporate finance, external reporting, strategic planning, financial planning & analysis, information technology, and human resources, Ms. Lehr brings a depth of strategic leadership expertise to her new role as Chief Financial Officer.

Prior to joining MEC in 2023, Ms. Lehr spent nearly 15 years at Briggs & Stratton, an industrial manufacturing company, where she held senior finance and corporate roles of increasing scope and complexity, including Senior Vice President of Administration and HR, and Controller for a $600 million international business. Ms. Lehr began her career with PricewaterhouseCoopers (“PwC”) where she led audit engagements with public companies across diverse end-markets. Ms. Lehr holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a Major in Accounting from Marquette University and is a certified public accountant (currently inactive).

“Rachele is an accomplished strategic leader whose unique blend of financial and business acumen remain valuable assets as we further advance our MBX value creation journey,” stated Jag Reddy, President and CEO of MEC. “As a trusted business partner with a proven ability to drive organizational transformation, we’re excited to have Rachele lead our finance team during this next, important phase for our business.”

“Since joining our organization in 2008, Todd has built a strong finance team well-equipped to further advance our multi-year value creation strategy,” continued Reddy. “I would like to thank Todd for his many contributions during his 17-year career with MEC and wish him the very best as he embarks on this next chapter.”

“MEC is a market-leading industrial solutions company with a clear vision for profitable growth,” stated Rachele Lehr, incoming Chief Financial Officer. “I am excited to assume the CFO role at a pivotal moment for the organization and look forward to partnering with our talented finance team as we seek to drive long-term value creation for both our customers and loyal shareholders.”

Today, MEC is reaffirming its full-year 2024 financial guidance provided on November 5, 2024.
