Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
Departure of Officer; Appointment of Interim Chief Financial Officer
On February 7, 2025, Mr. Jonathan Coblentz notified the Company that effective March 28, 2025, he plans to retire from his role as Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and Chief Administrative Officer (“CAO”) of the Company. Mr. Coblentz has served as the Company’s CFO since 2009. Mr. Coblentz’s resignation did not involve any disagreements with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies, or practices.
Mr. Coblentz will continue in his CFO and CAO roles until March 28th to support a smooth transition to Casey Mueller, the Company’s Principal Accounting Officer and Global Controller, who, following Mr. Coblentz’s departure will serve as interim CFO. The Company has retained an executive search firm to conduct a thorough search process to identify Mr. Coblentz’s successor, considering both internal and external candidates.
Mr. Mueller is 43 years old and has served as Global Controller since joining the Company in 2018 and assumed the role of Principal Accounting Officer in 2022. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Mueller held various leadership roles of increasing scope and responsibility within finance at OneMain Financial from 2013 to 2018. Mr. Mueller also previously served as Audit Manager at Deloitte LLP, a public accounting firm, which currently serves as the Company’s auditor. Mr. Mueller is a Certified Public Accountant and received a B.S. in Accounting and Master of Accountancy from Brigham Young University.
There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Mueller and any other person pursuant to which he was selected as interim CFO, and there is no family relationship between Mr. Mueller and any of the Company’s other directors or executive officers. There are no transactions between Mr. Mueller and the Company that would be required to be reported under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
Forward-Looking Statements
This current report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of United States securities laws, including statements about our expectations regarding the departure of the Company’s CFO and CAO and regarding its interim CFO. Forward-looking statements are often, but not always, identified by such forward-looking terminology as “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “plan,” “believe,” “anticipate,” and “may,” or similar statements or variations of such terms. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, are inherently uncertain, are based on current assumptions that are difficult to predict and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed in those statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by any forward-looking statements are set forth in our most recent annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and our subsequent SEC filings. We encourage investors to read these filings, particularly the sections on risk factors, for additional information with respect to any forward-looking statements and prior to making any investment decision. The forward-looking statements contained in this report should not by relied on as representing our expectations or beliefs as of any time subsequent to the time this report is first filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and we do not undertake efforts to revise those forward-looking statements to reflect events after that time.
