US pension fund CalSTRS to back Mantle Ridge candidates in Air Products board battle

The California State Teachers Retirement System (CalSTRS) said it will vote for activist investment firm Mantle Ridge's four director candidates to the board of Air Products and Chemicals, in the year's first major boardroom battle. The pension fund, which oversees $352.5 billion in assets, said on its website that it will back all four dissident candidates and withhold votes for four of Air Products' board members, including chief executive Seifi Ghasemi and lead director Edward Monser at the Jan. 23 annual meeting. Mantle Ridge wants industrial gases company Air Products to lay out a succession plan for its octogenarian CEO, who has served at the helm for a decade, allocate its capital differently and scale back on risky projects.
