News & Notes

Leader Tech recently celebrated its 20^th year in business with HEICO Corporation. Laurans Mendelson (CEO of HEICO), Victor Mendelson (Co-President of HEICO) and Tracy Kuhns (President of Leader Tech) were all in attendance to celebrate this landmark occasion. The celebration was held at Leader Tech’s Global EMI Shielding Technology Center in Tampa, FL with employees, and special guests to commemorate HEICO Corporation’s purchase of Leader Tech in June of 1999.

Leader Tech’s parent company, HEICO Corporation, is a successful and growing technology-driven aerospace, industrial, defense and electronics company. For more than 60 years, HEICO has thrived by providing customers with innovative and cost-saving products and services. HEICO recently announced that its Board of Directors declared a regular semi-annual cash dividend for the 82^nd consecutive time. Since 1990, HEICO has executed on a growth strategy which has consistently delivered superior returns and value to their shareholders. Considering the impact of cash dividends, prior stock splits and stock dividends, one share of HEI worth $8.38 in 1990 has become worth on a combined basis approximately $4,358 today representing an increase of approximately 520 times the 1990 value.

In a time when companies are moving away from the EMI Shielding customer through offshore manufacturing and distribution channels, Leader Tech stays committed to the US market by continuing to expand its industry experienced team, innovative manufacturing technology and US based facility. Leader Tech also believes that customers are better served when they talk directly to a live applications engineer instead of a machine. Personalized and responsive support, coupled with innovative domestic manufacturing, has been and will continue to be the hallmark of Leader Tech’s industry-best engineering and customer support departments.

Leader Tech is proud to be an integral part of the remarkable HEICO Corporation history and their future growth. For additional information, contact Leader Tech at 813-855-6921 or sales@leadertechinc.com.
