Key Details

• Effective date: April 29, 2026.
• Title: Interim Chief Financial Officer and principal financial officer; serves until a permanent successor is named.
• Experience: 20+ years in finance; recent CFO roles at Noble and Latham Group; EVP & CFO at Hypertherm (2018–2022).
• Compensation: The Board has not approved any compensation for Mr. Masson in connection with this appointment; the company will file an amendment if it enters into any material compensatory arrangement.

Why It Matters

• The CFO is the company’s principal financial officer and is responsible for financial reporting, planning and controls. An interim CFO appointment is a material executive change that investors should note because it can affect financial oversight and disclosure continuity.
• Mr. Masson’s sector experience may help continuity on finance operations, but investors should watch for a permanent CFO hire and any future disclosures about compensation or material changes to financial leadership.
