OLATHE, KANSAS – May 1, 2025 – Butler National Corporation (OTCQB: BUKS), a leader in the growing global market for aircraft modification, maintenance, repair and overhaul and a recognized provider of gaming management services, announces a significant reorganization of its sales teams and personnel reporting structure. Butler National is eliminating the sales team within the public reporting parent company and moving certain impacted staff to the relevant subsidiary divisions they service.
As a result, the company has eliminated the position of BNC Vice President & Director of Sales. Aric Peters’ last day with the company was May 1, 2025. The decision to eliminate this executive sales role reflects the company’s new organizational model, where senior sales functions are managed within individual business units and report directly to the respective business unit leaders. The Avcon sales team will report to Marcus Abendroth, President of Avcon.
“As we continue to identify opportunities to drive efficiencies across the company, this reorganization reinforces our focus on aligning responsibilities where they can have the most impact,” said Jeff Yowell, Executive Chairman of the Board. “By placing ownership of the sales function within each business unit, we create strong alignment with operational goals and clear accountability for performance. We believe this reorganization will enable management to better monitor the profitability of each business segment and improve margins.”
“I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside Aric for many years,” said Chris Reedy, Chief Executive Officer of Butler National. “His dedication to Butler National has made a lasting impact on our team and our operations. We are truly grateful for his many contributions over the years, and we wish him continued success in the future.”
