Pinterest Names Amazon Finance Veteran James Dibbo as CFO
PINS sits 45% above its 52-week low of $13.84.
Summary
Pinterest has appointed James Dibbo, a former Amazon VP and CFO of Global Entertainment, Advertising and Corporate Development, as its new CFO effective October 26. He replaces Julia Donnelly, who resigned in August and departs October 30 for a private early-stage company. CEO Bill Ready publicly endorsed Dibbo on LinkedIn, citing his expertise in consumer technology, shopping, and advertising. This follows the August 8-K announcing Donnelly's resignation and the interim appointment of Vikram Naidu. The permanent CFO hire removes uncertainty about the finance leadership transition, though the market impact is likely modest given the role's expected continuity.
At the time of this announcement, PINS was trading at $20.10 on NYSE in the Technology sector, with a market capitalization of approximately $11.4B. The 52-week trading range was $13.84 to $35.42.
