Subject: Re: 2024 Was WB's Last Letter
Um.

Maybe I'm missing the obvious (it wouldn't be the first time), but as I understand it at the annual meeting last spring, WEB announced he would retire as Chairman at the end of the year, i.e on 31 December 2025.

So he remains Chairman as I type, and I expect some type of a Chairman's Letter in the 2025 annual report. It may well be short, and concede a great deal of the white space to Greg Abel, but barring superseding health issues or other news between now and then I am looking forward to hearing a benediction of sorts when the annual report drops early in 2026.
