Dechra Pharmaceuticals PLC on Monday said Director Tony Griffin has stepped down after 12 years in the role, effective immediately.

The Northwich, Cheshire-based veterinary drugmaker said Griffin will also retire from his role as managing director of DVP Europe.

Dechra did not give a reason for his departure.

Chief Executive Officer Ian Page said: ‘I would like to take this opportunity to thank Tony for the significant contribution that he has made to the group during his tenure. Tony joined us following the acquisition of Eurovet in 2013. This was a transformative acquisition, providing critical mass, new markets, a wide range of complementary products and additional expertise to our management team.’

Shares in Dechra were up 0.1% at 3,824.00 pence each in London on Monday morning.
