Caliber Imaging & Diagnostics Names Richard C. Christopher to Chief Financial Officer
20 Mars 2014 - 12:30PM
Caliber Imaging & Diagnostics (OTCQB:LCDX), formerly Lucid,
Inc., has named Richard C. Christopher as Chief Financial Officer,
effective immediately. Mr. Christopher replaces Richard J.
Pulsifer.
Mr. Christopher served for eight years as Chief Financial
Officer of DUSA Pharmaceuticals, Inc., until its sale to Sun
Pharmaceuticals Industries Limited in 2012. DUSA Pharmaceuticals, a
vertically integrated specialty dermatology company, was focused
primarily on the development and marketing of its Levulan®
Photodynamic Therapy technology platform for the treatment of
precancerous skin lesions.
Mr. Christopher arrived at DUSA in 2000 and held a series
of positions of increasing responsibility before assuming the CFO
role in January 2005. In December 2012, he oversaw the sale of DUSA
Pharmaceuticals to Sun Pharmaceuticals for $230 million, a 38
percent premium to market. He holds a masters of science degree in
accounting from Suffolk University in Boston and a bachelor of
science degree in finance from Bentley College in Waltham,
Massachusetts.
Mr. Christopher said, "During my tenure at DUSA Pharmaceuticals,
I came to appreciate the specific challenges facing a small
publicly traded company developing new technology for the skin
cancer market. In my new role at Caliber I.D., I intend to work
closely with the rest of the management team and apply my insights
in an effort to position the Company for future growth. I believe
the strong value proposition of the VivaScope® devices offers a
firm foundation for an increasingly robust bottom
line."
L. Michael Hone, Chief Executive Officer of Caliber I.D., said,
"Rich Christopher has the ideal background to oversee Caliber
I.D.'s future financial growth. Having been involved with a
start-up company through its growth stages and eventual sale, he
has specific expertise ranging from capital markets to strategic
planning, that we, as an emerging company, will benefit from. We
look forward to capitalizing on his keen judgment in the months and
years to come. We would also like to thank Richard Pulsifer for the
tremendous job he has done as CFO, and wish him the best of luck in
his future endeavors."
