BRINKS CO 8-K

What Happened

Brink’s Co. (BCO) filed an 8-K announcing that Michael Sweeney ceased serving as the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer and Controller effective January 7, 2026. The company said it has implemented transitional measures to maintain continuity in accounting and reporting, and that Chief Financial Officer Kurt McMaken will serve as Acting Chief Accounting Officer until a permanent successor is appointed.

Key Details

• Effective date: January 7, 2026 (Michael Sweeney ceased serving as CAO and Controller).
• Interim coverage: Kurt McMaken, Brink’s Chief Financial Officer, named Acting Chief Accounting Officer.
• Transition: Company implemented transitional measures to support continuity in accounting and reporting.
• Filing: Event reported on Form 8-K under Item 5.02 (departure/election of officers).

Why It Matters

A change in the chief accounting officer affects the company’s leadership over financial reporting and controls. Brink’s has named its CFO to cover the role temporarily, which aims to preserve continuity while a permanent replacement is sought. For investors, this is a governance and operational update to monitor — particularly if the company later discloses further details about the successor, any changes to accounting practices, or impacts on timing of financial reports.
