CFO — Michael Feehan: The CFO is departing without cause but is being immediately succeeded by a named external hire with a structured transition plan, indicating an orderly succession rather than a sudden loss.
Why it matters: Laurie Bergman took over as CFO in August. Her first full results report can show a steady hand in forecasts and cash reporting.
