Super Vision International, Inc. (NASDAQ:SUPVA), a world
leading manufacturer of fiber optic and LED lighting, announced today
that it has appointed Mike Bauer as President and CEO effective
January 1, 2006. Mr. Bauer has served as the company's Vice President
of Sales and Marketing for the past year and was recommended by Super
Vision's current President/CEO, Brett Kingstone, to succeed him. Mr.
Kingstone will remain as President and CEO until Mr. Bauer takes
office on January 1, 2006 and will continue as Chairman of the Board.
"It has been a spectacular opportunity and thrill to lead this
company out of a small garage to $12 million in sales," stated Brett
Kingstone, Super Vision's founder and CEO. "However, the time has come
for new management to lead us to the next level of growth. Mike Bauer
is a proven leader in the lighting industry. His success in leading
the lighting sales and marketing efforts for several Fortune 500
companies, including his previous positions as VP of Sales for Cooper
Lighting, VP of Sales for Lighting Corporation of America, Director of
Marketing and Product Development for Lumark/McGraw-Edison and his
cross functional experience with GE Lighting Systems, makes him
uniquely qualified for the job. Personally, I have known Mike for over
ten years and I have not found anyone who is more dedicated and
tireless in our industry. Mike will lead our team in supporting all of
our employees, customers and distributors with a passion unmatched by
any other company."
"In the 18 years I have worked in lighting, I have never been more
excited about a company, its products and its prospects for dramatic
growth in an emerging technology. Even more important, I have never
worked with a group of people more committed to seeing a company
breakout and succeed," stated Bauer. "A strong, diversified foundation
has been laid to build upon and I am grateful to Brett and the Board
of Directors for their support in allowing me to execute an exciting
plan that we expect will lead Super Vision to profitable growth."
