About Sam Mastovich

I\'m a hands-on general manager with a focus on building sustainable growth through strategy and operational execution. Currently leading Applus Keystone, I oversee post-acquisition integration while continuing to drive performance—building on a strong foundation from over a decade managing Keystone Compliance.At Keystone, I guided operations that delivered consistent results, including ~3.4x revenue growth from 2016 to 2025 (~14.7% CAGR) and meaningful diversification (e.g, reducing top industry exposure from 50% to 20% of revenue and largest client from 40% to <5%). This helped position the company for a successful acquisition with over 40 competitive bids.My experience spans team building (growing staff from the low teens to 50+ with low turnover), acquisitions/integration, finance, marketing, and HR oversight. As Founder/President of MIBS Inc, I supported small businesses with practical C-level guidance on planning, financing, processes, and digital marketing.With BS and MS degrees in Finance from Robert Morris University and a background in commercial lending (managing portfolios with strong performance and zero losses), I bring a balanced approach to financial discipline and operational efficiency.Proud to contribute to Applus Keystone\'s ongoing success.
