Bally Technologies has appointed Richard Haddrill as its chief executive officer.
Ramesh Srinivasan will no longer serve as president and CEO and as a member of the board of directors. Haddrill has served as a member of the board since 2003 and chairman of the board since 2012. Additionally, he was the company’s CEO from 2004 to 2012.
David Robbins, who has been serving as the board’s lead independent director, has been appointed chairman of the board. Robbins also served as chairman from 1997 to 2010.
“The board would like to thank Ramesh for his many years of service to Bally and for his leadership in guiding the company through the acquisition and integration of SHFL entertainment, as well as his exemplary execution in developing Bally’s systems business,” said Robbins.
“Dick’s depth of knowledge about our company and our industry is unparalleled. As a result of his many years of being Bally’s CEO, a director and chairman, we believe that he is uniquely qualified to lead Bally through its next era of growth.”
