LBX Company has unveiled a new leadership team structure, effective January 1, as part of a broader effort to strengthen strategic alignment, accelerate decision-making and enhance support for its dealers and customers.
The new structure establishes an executive leadership team focused on enterprise strategy, long-term growth and overall business performance, supported by a senior leadership team responsible for operational execution and cross-functional business performance.
“As we look ahead to 2027 and beyond, we are deliberately sharpening our strategic focus to better navigate a highly competitive business environment,” said Eric Sauvage, president and CEO of LBX. “This evolution is not about adding management layers; it is about creating clarity. By establishing distinct accountability and deeper collaboration, we are empowering our organization to move faster and work more effectively. Ultimately, this structure gives us the operational precision and speed required to support our customers and protect our competitive edge.”
Under the new structure, Mike Reynolds, currently vice president and chief financial officer, has been promoted to vice president and chief revenue officer for North America and will join the executive leadership team.
Powered byReynolds will lead the senior leadership team, uniting sales operations, customer support, marketing and distribution development, pricing and market intelligence, supply-chain operations and business operations. The moves are designed to strengthen accountability, improve cross-functional collaboration and accelerate profitable growth across the North American business.
LBX’s portfolio includes excavators, forestry equipment and material handlers. The company continues to expand its X4S Series of excavators, which it launched in 2023.
Last fall, it rolled out its smallest model in the series, the 33,900-pound 145 X4S. The company followed up at ConExpo 2026 with the new 61,200-pound 245 X4S, as well as a preview of the 18,800-pound 80 X4 compact excavator.
Link-Belt ranked eleventh in new financed excavator sales from September 2025 to August 2026, according to EDA equipment finance data. (EDA and Equipment World are both owned by Fusable.)
