We wish him well in his current ventures."
Grover Wickersham commented, "It's been an honor working with my current and past colleagues at S&W, many of whom have become very good friends. I believe that because of the Chromatin acquisition and other timely strategic positioning, the company has its best years ahead of it. I continue to own a significant equity position and am a strong supporter of the great team at S&W."
