Key Details

• Date notified: June 1, 2026; resignation effective: July 10, 2026.
• Current controller Marie Washburn is expected to be elevated to the CFO role upon Locklear’s departure (pending final contract).
• The company characterized the departure as voluntary and not related to any disagreement with company operations or policies.

Why It Matters
A CFO departure is a notable leadership change because the CFO oversees financial reporting, controls, and investor communications. The company indicates a planned internal transition (controller likely stepping into the CFO role), which can support continuity, but the appointment is still pending a finalized contract. Investors should watch for a confirmed appointment, any related disclosure about the transition timeline or compensation, and any updates to financial guidance or reporting processes.
