Reading Time: 1 minute
Maverick Gaming has appointed Thomas J. Granite as the Chief Financial Officer, effective June 5th, 2019. Granite was serving as Managing Director at Jefferies in its Real Estate, Gaming and Lodging Investment Banking group.
Granite began his banking career with companies such as JP Morgan Chase and Merrill Lynch where he served as Director of Gaming, Leisure and Transportation Investment Banking before coming to Jefferies.
At Maverick, Granite will be responsible for all of the Company’s financial and treasury functions including financial reporting, banking relationships, investor relations, and M&A activity.
“We are counting on Tom to bring his proven financial expertise and extensive industry relationships to the CFO position. His background at Jefferies will undoubtedly assist Maverick as we continue to transform into a best in class regional operator,” Eric Persson, the majority owner of Maverick said.
“Tom’s hire once again demonstrates Maverick’s ability to attract top talent from the gaming industry and the investment banking community. Over the next few months we will be announcing several more acquisitions that will continue to define Maverick, and we are counting on Tom to help get us there,” Persson added.
“I am excited to be a critical part of the Maverick executive team and believe it is a unique opportunity to create something special. Maverick’s same store EBITDA is up around 100% Year-Over-Year. That coupled with their acquisition growth is very impressive to me,” Granite said.
“I have a clear vision of Maverick’s growth strategy as the consolidator of choice in the regional gaming sector and I look forward to the challenge of efficiently structuring, financing and integrating the portfolio of over 20 properties as Maverick continues to grow,” Granite added.
