Jamf Announces Appointment of David Rudow as Chief Financial Officer

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jamf (NASDAQ: JAMF), the standard in managing and securing Apple at work, today announced the appointment of David Rudow to Chief Financial Officer ("CFO").

Mr. Rudow will begin employment with Jamf on October 28, 2024, and will succeed Jamf's current Chief Financial Officer, Ian Goodkind, who is departing to pursue other opportunities, effective November 28, 2024. Goodkind will work closely with Rudow to facilitate a seamless transition. 

"I want to thank Ian Goodkind for everything he has done for Jamf over the last five years and wish him the best of his future endeavors," said John Strosahl, CEO, Jamf.

Rudow is a seasoned financial executive with significant experience in both public and private high-growth technology companies. Rudow joins Jamf from Cover Genius, a global embedded Insurtech company. Prior to that, he was the CFO at Unite Us as well as the CFO of nCino, a fintech SaaS company, where Rudow led nCino's initial public offering. In addition to his technology enterprise experience, Rudow held several senior level positions over an 18-year period at various investment banking and financial services firms, including Piper Jaffray, J.P. Morgan, and Thrivent Asset Management. Rudow is also a Certified Public Accountant and worked at KPMG and PricewaterhouseCoopers. 

"David brings a powerful combination of deep financial acumen and public company experience to Jamf," added Strosahl. "His proven CFO track record and experience in tech will be invaluable as we continue to innovate and drive growth in this rapidly evolving market. His appointment underscores our commitment to excellence and our dedication to driving value for our customers, employees, and shareholders."

"I am excited to join the talented team at Jamf and contribute to Jamf's continued success," said Rudow. "Jamf has an exceptional culture and is the market leader in helping organizations manage and secure their Apple devices for work. I look forward to contributing to their mission of helping organizations succeed with Apple."

Jamf is also reaffirming its previously announced financial outlook for revenue and non-GAAP operating income for the third quarter and full year 2024.

For the third quarter of 2024, Jamf currently expects:

• Total revenue of $156.5 to $158.5 million
• Non-GAAP operating income of $25.5 to $26.5 million

For the full year 2024, Jamf currently expects:

• Total revenue of $622.5 to $625.5 million
• Non-GAAP operating income of $96.0 to $98.0 million

Jamf plans to report financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2024, in early November.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), we believe the non-GAAP measure of non-GAAP operating income is useful in evaluating our operating performance. Non-GAAP operating income excludes amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, foreign currency transaction loss (gain), amortization of debt issuance costs, acquisition-related expense, payroll taxes related to stock-based compensation, system transformation costs, restructuring charges, and extraordinary legal settlements and non-recurring litigation costs. We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assists in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP information to supplement their GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The principal limitation of the non-GAAP financial information is that it excludes significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements. In addition, the non-GAAP financial information is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgment by our management about which expenses are excluded or included in determining the non-GAAP financial information. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements included in our publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely solely on any single financial measurement or communication.
