Allen Vanguard Corporation (“Allen Vanguard”) today announced that long-time board member David Luxton has retired from his role with the company. Allen Vanguard is a portfolio company of investment firm Versa Capital Management, LLC (“Versa”).

“On behalf of Versa, and as David’s fellow Allen Vanguard board members, we extend our sincere thanks and best wishes to him after more than ten years of dedicated service,” said board members Raymond French and Greg Segall, both appointees of Versa, Allen Vanguard’s sole shareholder.

Mr. Luxton led the build-out of Allen-Vanguard as CEO when it was a small emerging private company in 2003 to become a world leader in Counter-IED (Improvised Explosive Devices). He has served as a board member and Chairman since 2011.

“It has been gratifying to not only serve with such capable colleagues, said Luxton, “but to have been part of the important work of Allen-Vanguard, whose products have saved countless lives around the world.”
