On August 23, 2024, LivePerson, Inc., (the "Company") issued the below internal communication from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer:
Hi Team,
First, I want to thank you for your ongoing dedication as we continue to execute on our strategic vision and operational priorities. The momentum across the company continues to build. We’ve also recently received several fantastic external validations of our strategy, including multiple recognitions from top industry research and media publications.
I want to briefly address the press release issued by LivePerson’s former CEO Rob LoCascio. Every year at our company’s Annual Meeting, our shareholders have the ability to vote for and elect directors to serve on our board of directors. From time to time, shareholders of public companies also propose nominees for election to the board of directors, as Rob has done this year.
It is not uncommon for public companies to occasionally experience this type of activity. While you may see some news on this topic, it is business as usual at LivePerson.
Our priority, as always, is the continued execution of delivering value to all shareholders, as well as to our customers, employees, and surrounding communities.
If you receive any external inquiries regarding this topic, please refer them to our PR Director Mike Tague ([redacted]). Additional information about our annual meeting of shareholders can be found here.
Stay focused on our mission to serve our customers and grow our company. Thank you for your continued dedication and for the great work you do everyday.
John
