On 7/19/18, Miller/Howard announced its conversion to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) structure. The ESOP will hold in trust, through an institutional trustee, all of the company equity exclusively for the benefit of all current and future employees. Indeed, the employees will no longer be simply employees—every employee will have the economic benefits of stock ownership and a stake in the continued success of the firm. In an ESOP, the company continues to operate as before, with no changes to the investment team, investment process or philosophy.
