Rumor or Truth - Permlight CEO fired?


Recommended Posts

Heard from a couple of people that Permlight CEO Michael Keddington was fired because the company was "not meeting its numbers"

Any truth to this or is this just a rumor?

My brother (at Permlight) and I do not talk business so I was wondering if anyone could comment.

If they are a public company wouldnt that info be available?

I personally do not have a clue.

GOOD things happen for a reason......

No, they are a private company.

Several people I know called the front desk at Permlight and asked the question but did not get a response back.

Kind of like JT LED and N Glantz on possible legal issues with Nichia - seems odd that no one can ever answer questions straightforwardly.

Seems like we all should learn something from animals - if one dog doesnt like another dog - it lets it know right away. If a horse does not want to do something it lets you know right away. If a cat is scared of you it is going to make sure you know it rather quickly. Wish we all could be more straightforward.

I hope Permlight does ok - my brother and my nephew work there and I want my family to do well.

I spoke with Michael Keddington, the ex-CEO (???) of Permlight a couple of weeks ago and had a great talk - he made it sound like he was going to get an outside investor but I warned him that his board of directors probably would not allow that because they didnt want the company to grow too much.

    • It depends on what's under the EIFS.   If it's plywood under the foam, then toggles are fine for a lightweight sign.  If masonry, we've come to like the titen HD (simpson strong tie brand) anchors or long wedge anchors.   The Titen HD screws are more user friendly than tapcons IMO.   They come in a variety of sizes, sometimes even at the big home centers.   Just check to see if it's densglass (fiberglass wall panels) under the foam.  Engineeners have told us that densglass isn't "structural" and that things need to be thru-bolted with uni-strut (or equal) sleepers across studs inside the wall.  A few years back, we were called out for an emergency call where someone had installed some large raceway channel letter signs to an EIFS wall that had densglass behind.  They used lag screws.  These held for a while but a heavy snow caused them to fail.   And toggles should work with Densglass but again not for any heavy loads.    In any case don't compress the foam too much.  A sleeve (mentioned above) would be needed for whatever the depth of the foam might be, though probably not needed for something light like an ACM panel.   if it's a really small sign, then appropriate exterior screws are usually OK going into plywood.

    • Hi   Can anyone tell me the right color red and blue translucent vinyl for the "new" Pepsi logo?  We have a local ice cream spot that recently changed from Coke to Pepsi and we have to replace the graphics on a couple of lit cabinets.   The customer sent me the logo in various formats but it didn't specify the correct colors.   I've searched but keep getting CYMK, etc. for the older logo - 2022 or so.   Thanks!
