Water Tower Research LLC said that it has expanded its analyst ranks by appointing Graham Mattison to cover the industrial and sustainability sectors.
The investor engagement company said that adding Mattison to its already strong sustainable team, led by co-founder Shawn Severson, expands its presence in the rapidly growing segment.
Mattison brings about 20 years of equity research and investor relations experience. Most recently, he was a contracted investor relations officer for natural gas/LPG vehicle technologies company Westport Fuel Systems.

“We are excited to add someone of Graham’s caliber and experience to our team. His sell-side and investor relations experience will be a major asset to our clients and WTR,” said CEO Stuart Linde in a statement.
Previously, Mattison was vice president of investor relations and strategic initiatives for pollution control technologies company Advanced Emissions Solutions. Mattison’s equity research experience includes positions at Lazard Capital Markets and First Albany Capital, covering the oilfield services & equipment and diversified industrial sectors. He began his career in Southeast Asia as an investment analyst for Daiwa Securities.
Mattison received his MBA with Honors from the Thunderbird School of Global Management at Arizona State, and a BA in East Asian Studies at Hobart College. Mattison holds an Investor Relations Charter (IRC) certification.
Water Tower Research was founded to provide “Research for the Other 99%” with a mission to improve the communication channels between companies and their stakeholders that have been impaired by dramatic structural changes to the conventional equity research and investor engagement models, the company said.
