Across his roles at Home Depot and previously as CFO of Deluxe, he has consistently driven cost management, operating efficiency and margin enhancement while supporting long-term strategic priorities.
Throughout his career, Scott has led major financial transformations, strengthened international operations and partnered with leadership teams to drive long‑term strategy and value creation. With the momentum in the business and incredible opportunities in front of us, together we will look to capitalize on the meaningful growth ahead for YETI. This includes driving product innovation, expanding our global presence and further penetrating our total addressable market. I look forward to working closely with Scott as we execute on our growth initiatives and position YETI for continued success."
Mr. Reintjes continued, "On behalf of the entire YETI team, I thank Mike for his decade of service, including his leadership over the last three years as CFO. Mike has been a valued member of our team and played an important role in our transformation, including helping to take the Company public in 2018 and overseeing significant growth and expansion during his tenure. We are grateful that Mike will continue to contribute his guidance and expertise to facilitate a smooth transition, and we wish him the best in his future endeavors."
