“We recognize Kevin O’Hara’s contributions to Integra and his leadership during a time of significant transition in the company,” said Integra Board Chairman Paul Sunu in a press release. “Integra’s progress under Kevin’s watch has led us to financial stability, a strengthened network infrastructure and a portfolio of products that align well with our strategic focus on the enterprise marketplace.”
Guth, who will serve as Integra’s chief executive while the company identifies a permanent CEO, has several years of leadership experience. From September 2011 through April 2014, he served as chairman, president and CEO of The Reader’s Digest Association. Currently, he serves as chairman of the board of Lumos Networks, a facilities-based telecommunications services provider in the Mid-Atlantic area.
“Integra has a solid foundation for growth and a vast market opportunity for our high-bandwidth fiber networks and enterprise-ready products and services,” said Guth. “My charter is to continue to build on that foundation, and I look forward to working closely with our management team to develop the agenda for our next phase of growth and position the business for lasting success.”
Integra did not provide a reason for O’Hara’s departure.
