Since our launch as a public company in 1946, we have endeavored to be an industry leader in the markets we serve and deliver value to all our stakeholders – our customers, our employees, our partners, and our shareholders – as well as support the communities in which we operate. Over my 45 years in leadership roles, I have had the humble opportunity to work with thousands of talented, capable, and dedicated people, especially those in our facilities around the world.

The Board will benefit from his leadership as the company continues to drive value for its stockholders."

    Thomas J. Hook, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, "On behalf of our entire organization, I want to publicly recognize and thank Tom for his decades of steadfast leadership, championing of our people, and meaningful community impact. It has been an honor to serve with Tom, and we salute and celebrate his immeasurable service to Barnes. We look forward to his continued contributions as Chairman Emeritus."

    Hook continued, "We also look forward to working with Adam and Larry, particularly as we drive our strategic processes to scale Aerospace, and integrate, consolidate, and rationalize Industrial. We expect that Adam will reinforce an investor's perspective in our board deliberations, while Larry will provide valuable industry perspective as we expand our Aerospace business. We appreciate their enthusiasm for the Company and welcome their expertise and active participation in supporting shareholder value creation."
