Display ACF User Field on Frontend

Question

I am trying to display an ACF user field on the front end, but I only want to have the display name and the users email show up. Here is what I have so far, but on the frontend a random string shows up. I debugged the $user variable with print_r() and the array shows all the info correctly. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

<?php
// retrieve "pds_project_manager" field from the post id ""
$pds_project_manager = get_field('pds_project_manager', "");
// loop over users
foreach($pds_project_manager as $user){
$user_id = $user['ID'];
$user_email = $user['user_email'];
$user_display_name = $user['display_name'];
echo "$user_display_name ($user_email)";
echo "<br />";
// do something...}

This is the random string thats currently displays on the front end () B (B) W (W) T (T) t (t) B (B) b (b) () 2 (2) () ()

Try this:

<?php
$users = get_field("pds_project_manager");
if( $users ): ?>
<ul>
    <?php foreach( $users as $user ): ?>
        <li>
            <?php echo esc_attr( $user->display_name ); ?><br/>
            <a href="mailto:<?php echo esc_attr($user->user_email); ?>"><?php echo $user->user_email; ?></a><br/>
            <?php the_field('company_name', 'user_'.$user->ID);?>
        </li>
    <?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>
