American Clean Resources Group, Inc. has made significant changes in its executive leadership, appointing Anthony Evers as its new Chief Financial Officer. This decision comes after the termination of Luke McPherson, effective October 13, 2026. The move is part of the company's strategy to enhance its financial oversight and operational efficiency.
Tawana Bain, the current Chief Executive Officer, briefly took on additional responsibilities as Interim Principal Financial Officer and Interim Principal Accounting Officer following McPherson's departure. However, effective October 19, 2026, Evers has been appointed to the roles of Fractional Chief Financial Officer, Principal Financial Officer, and Principal Accounting Officer.
This leadership transition is significant for American Clean Resources Group, which operates in the mining and quarrying of nonmetallic minerals, a sector that is often influenced by economic fluctuations and regulatory changes. The appointment of Evers, who has a background in financial management and operations, may signal a new direction for the company as it seeks to navigate these challenges.
Evers previously served as Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer at SurgePays, Inc., a telecommunications and financial technology company, from 2020 until the end of 2025. Afterward, he provided consulting services to SurgePays until June 2026, focusing on financial reporting and SEC compliance.
In connection with his appointment, American Clean Resources Group has entered into a consulting agreement with Satevers II LLC, under which Evers will offer his services at a rate of $250 per hour, with a cap of 60 billable hours per month. This rate will increase to $275 per hour after the first 90 days unless a fixed monthly retainer is agreed upon.
The company has stated that there are no family relationships between Evers and any directors or executive officers, and there are no material interests in any transactions that would require disclosure.
As the mining and quarrying industry continues to evolve, American Clean Resources Group's leadership change could influence its operational strategies and competitive positioning. Other companies in the sector may observe how ACRG adapts to this new leadership and the potential impacts on its performance.
Details about future plans or initiatives following this leadership change were not disclosed in the filing. The company is expected to provide more information in upcoming reports as it continues to refine its strategies under new management.
