Exhibit 99
Viad Corp Announces Resignation of Kimbra A. Fracalossi, President and CEO of Its Exhibitgroup/Giltspur Division
PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 31, 2006--Viad Corp (NYSE:VVI) today announced that Kim Fracalossi has resigned as president and chief executive officer of its Exhibitgroup/Giltspur division to pursue other interests. Fracalossi has agreed to continue working with the company in a consulting role to ensure a smooth transition to new leadership for Exhibitgroup. Until a new president and chief executive officer of Exhibitgroup is named, the senior management team of Exhibitgroup will report to Paul B. Dykstra, chief operating officer of Viad Corp.
"I went to Exhibitgroup/Giltspur to turn the business around and this has been accomplished," said Fracalossi. "Exhibitgroup/Giltspur's improved performance in the back half of 2005 reinforces my belief that the company now has the infrastructure in place to profitably grow the business while maintaining its strong cost discipline." Robert H. Bohannon, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Viad said, "When Kim assumed the role of president and CEO of Exhibitgroup in June 2002, she was charged with leading a major business restructuring effort. Kim has done a terrific job of rationalizing the cost structure and improving the processes of Exhibitgroup to transform it into a much stronger and more efficient organization. We thank Kim for her leadership during a very important and challenging phase at Exhibitgroup and wish her well in her future endeavors."
Dykstra added, "Kim has certainly been instrumental in repositioning Exhibitgroup for success. The company now has an efficient infrastructure, great processes and a strong management team. The company has tremendous potential. I look forward to working more closely with the Exhibitgroup team to ensure a smooth and successful transition to new leadership and to ensure that we reach our potential."
