John Stephens possesses expertise in capital markets, real estate, mergers and acquisitions, due diligence, budgets and 8 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I had the pleasure of working with John for over 3 years during a very volatile time both in the financial markets as well as in the homebuilding industry. John very adeptly managed the business, a highly levered balance sheet and a strong willed equity partner. As CFO of SPF, he managed to secure a 3 year Revolving Credit Facility in an environment whereby only one other homebuilder (who was investment grade) had a facility in place, thus increasing liquidity for the business at a critical time in the cycle. Additionally, he navigated the capital markets extremely well refinancing a large portion of their debt at very favorable rates. John understand the changing dynamics of the capital markets and understands the need to move quickly to take advantage of windows which open and close quickly. When John took over as CFO, the Company was in severe trouble and he managed to get it on the right track and left it with a significantly better balance and debt maturity profile. Perhaps more importantly, John is a finance leader who is a true team leader able to lead a finance team that spans differing skill levels and geographies and improve the overall quality of the organization. I would recommend John without reservation." and "I worked for John in the accounting and finance group at Standard Pacific Homes for the past seven years. John led the group by example through his strong work ethic, integrity, and passion for accurate and transparent financial reporting. As a manager, John provided me many opportunities to learn and grow professionally. I credit much of my growth and success at Standard Pacific to John’s leadership skills."
