Neighbourly Pharmacy Inc. appointed Skip Bourdo as Chief Executive Officer. Chris Gardner has decided to step down as CEO and will continue to support the Company in a Strategic Advisor role. Skip Bourdo is an accomplished pharmacy and healthcare executive with 30 years of industry experience.

Mr. Bourdo had a successful 27-year career at Walgreens, one of North America's pharmacy chains, starting as a cashier, then store manager, and growing in positions of ever-increasing responsibility, including integration and business transformation roles, and culminating as Group Vice President, Pharmacy and Retail Field Operations for Walgreens' Western operations, where he oversaw a network covering 4,700 retail, health system and specialty pharmacy locations, generating over $46 billion in revenue, and employing over 120,000 team members in 29 states, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, serving nearly 4 million customers and patients every day. More recently, Mr. Bourdo was Chief Operating Officer of Athletico, a rapidly growing, leading provider of orthopedic rehabilitation services across the United States. During his tenure at Athletico, Mr. Bourdo was responsible for bringing operational excellence, structure, and scale capabilities to Athletico's clinic operations, which almost doubled their retail footprint to 950+ locations over the course of two years.

The appointment of Skip Bourdo follows a rigorous search process, which considered high quality candidates from Canada and the USA. Chris Gardner continues to be committed to the success and growth of the Company and will remain with Neighbourly as a Strategic Advisor, supporting Mr. Bourdo and the Board of Directors over the next twelve months, including continuing to execute on the Company's robust acquisition pipeline. Mr. Gardner joined Neighbourly in 2017 and became CEO in February 2019 leading the Company's rapid growth -- driving a nearly five-fold increase from 61 locations to 284 locations coast to coast, as well as its public offering in 2021.
