What Happened
Mativ Holdings, Inc. (MATV) filed an 8‑K on January 14, 2026 confirming that its former Chief Financial Officer, Gregory Weitzel, departed effective December 31, 2025 and that the company and Mr. Weitzel entered into a Separation Agreement and General Waiver and Release dated January 8, 2026.

Key Details

• Former CFO: Gregory Weitzel; departure effective December 31, 2025.
• Separation Agreement dated January 8, 2026; filed with the 8‑K as Exhibit 10.1.
• Severance and post‑termination treatment of equity awards will be consistent with the “Termination Not in Connection with a Change of Control” section of Mativ’s definitive proxy statement filed March 21, 2025.
• The filing does not specify dollar amounts; it references previously disclosed severance terms.

Why It Matters
Executive departures can affect leadership continuity and may result in cash or equity‑related payments. Because the separation follows the company’s disclosed severance plan, the financial impact is likely governed by previously reported terms—investors should consult Mativ’s March 21, 2025 proxy for the specific potential payment amounts and conditions. No other operational or financial results were reported in this 8‑K.
