SSD - How Simpson Manufacturing's 2020 Plan is Rewarding Investors
More than a half-century ago, Barclay Simpson started a company that would become an industry standard for construction fasteners. Today, the Simpson Strong-Tie brand is the leading structural connector and fastener manufacturer in the United States and Europe.
Barclay Simpson's personable demeanor instilled a culture that is his legacy five years after his passing at age 93. The current leadership team at Simpson Manufacturing (NYSE: SSD), however, isn't dwelling on past success. In October 2017, a 2020 plan was revealed to lead the company into the future. Its plan reflects where certain metrics will stand by the end of 2020, and the company has so far shown mixed results.
