Arrington Outdoor Advertising was founded in the late 90’s by David Arrington and Mike Wolverton. The partners believed with David’s oil & gas experience and Mike’s real estate and marketing experience that owning and operating billboards just made sense.  Since that time Arrington Outdoor has built an impressive business that extends to over 30 counties in North Texas with most being within a two hour drive of the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex. Currently Arrington Outdoor’s Texas billboard inventory goes east as far as Tyler, south to Waco, west to Midland and north to the Red River. The company are members of OAAA, IBO and Geopath.

Insider had a chance to talk with Mike Wolverton for an update on Arrington Outdoor.

Mike Wolverton
Mike, what’s the current state of your plant.  How many structures and faces does Arrington have and how many of those are digital?
We have approximately 800 traditional billboard faces in roughly 40 counties of which the majority are in the North Texas area and Dallas/Fort Worth DMA. We currently have ten digital faces.
 
Any opinion as to a digital manufacturer?
The majority of our digital signs have been with Watchfire and we have a couple with Daktronics. We have been pleased with the product and support of both manufacturers.
 
Could you share your thoughts on your occasional sale of select assets.  You seem to be very strategic in your approach?
Our philosophy is to operate and grow our plant within a reasonable distance to our personnel and contiguous to our existing footprint. Economies of scale typically impact our decision making when it comes to the sale of any assets.
 
How about on the buy side?  Are you in the market now? 

We are well positioned for growth and open to strategic opportunities that meet our philosophy for operating and expanding our plant.
