CompoSecure, Inc. Announces CEO Transition; Company to Rename to GPGI
What Happened
- CompoSecure, Inc. (CMPO) filed an 8‑K on Jan. 21, 2026 announcing leadership changes and corporate housekeeping. Graham Robinson will become President and CEO of the CompoSecure business (operated through CompoSecure, L.L.C.) effective Jan. 22, 2026. Jonathan C. Wilk resigned as the Company’s CEO and as a director effective Jan. 21, 2026.
- The Board designated Thomas R. Knott as the Company’s principal executive officer and Kurt Schoen as the Company’s principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, both effective Jan. 22, 2026. Mary O. Holt will stop serving as the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer but will remain CFO of CompoSecure LLC.
- The Board approved bylaw amendments to reflect the company’s previously announced renaming to GPGI, Inc., which becomes effective Jan. 22, 2026. The filing attaches a press release (Exhibit 99.1) announcing these changes.
Key Details
- Transition and Consulting Agreement with departing CEO Jonathan Wilk (Transition Date Jan. 16, 2026): if Wilk remains in service through Jan. 1, 2027 he will receive $750,000 payable through Jan. 1, 2027, remain eligible for a 2025 incentive payment and for scheduled RSU/PSU vesting on Jan. 1, 2027, and will receive an additional $750,000 cash payment timed with 2027 executive incentive payouts.
- Wilk is eligible for COBRA medical coverage at the Company’s expense for the period from the Transition Date through the second anniversary thereof; he is also subject to restrictive covenants and provided a general release of claims.
- Graham Robinson brings ~30 years’ experience (most recently Operating Executive at The Carlyle Group, SVP & Global President, Industrial at Stanley Black & Decker 2020–2025, prior senior roles at Honeywell and earlier technology experience); holds advanced degrees from Wharton and Cornell.
- No additional compensation was reported for Thomas Knott or Kurt Schoen in connection with their new company officer designations.
Why It Matters
- Leadership change: A new operating CEO for the CompoSecure business and new company-level officers signal an immediate management shift that may affect strategy, execution and disclosure going forward. Graham Robinson’s background emphasizes industrial, commercial and M&A experience, which may inform business priorities.
- Financial impact: The filing documents known transition costs (at least $1.5 million in potential cash payments tied to Wilk’s consulting/transition arrangement plus COBRA coverage) and continued vesting/incentive potential, which are quantifiable near-term items investors can monitor.
- Corporate identity and governance: The formal bylaw change to reflect the renaming to GPGI, Inc. and the designation of new principal officers are material governance updates investors should note for filings, proxy materials and future communications.
