a leading manufacturer and marketer of innovative solutions for the ag industry in the areas of crop protection and nutrition, turf and ornamental management, and commercial pest control (the &#147;Company&#148;), today announced the appointment of
Douglas A. (&#147;Dak&#148;) Kaye, III as the new Chief Executive Officer following a unanimous vote from its Board of Directors (the &#147;Board&#148;), effective December&nbsp;9, 2024. Mr.&nbsp;Kaye will be based at global headquarters beginning
January&nbsp;6, 2025. Mr.&nbsp;Kaye brings extensive experience to AVD and is expected to lead the Company into a new era of growth and innovation. He will succeed the Office of CEO (OCEO), which has been in place since July&nbsp;15, 2024. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Dak&#146;s global agricultural knowledge will be valuable in leading the Company. For the past 13 years, he has served in a variety of senior leadership roles
at Albaugh, LLC, a top ten global crop protection company. He most recently held the role of President, North America, which is the largest region in the Company. Previously, he was Group Chief Commercial Officer, where he oversaw the commercial
activities, which included North America, Europe, Brazil, Argentina, and Latin America regions. Mr.&nbsp;Kaye also served as President of the European region for seven years. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Prior to his work at Albaugh, Dak was the CFO and a Director at a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-crop</FONT> subsidiary of the crop protection company,
Adama, and previously held the role of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Co-CEO</FONT> at an international automotive logistics organization. Mr.&nbsp;Kaye began his career at Arthur Andersen, LLP. He has a Masters of Accountancy and a Bachelor of
Science in Business Administration, both from Auburn University. Mr.&nbsp;Kaye was recently elected to the Executive Board of the industry group CropLife America (CLA). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;We are excited to welcome Dak to American Vanguard,&#148; said Scott Baskin, Lead Director of the Board. &#147;His appointment is the result of a
comprehensive search process that attracted many outstanding candidates. We are pleased that Dak has agreed to join American Vanguard to spearhead the next phase of the Company&#146;s business transformation,&#148; said Mr.&nbsp;Baskin. He
continued, &#147;We believe that Dak is the right executive to drive the Company to achieve its transformation goal of generating an adjusted EBITDA margin of 15% and to strategically position the Company for future growth. I also want to thank the
members of the OCEO for their leadership in the interim. While managing several significant changes simultaneously, they also jumpstarted the business transformation and the Company has greatly benefited from their hard work and dedication.&#148;
