CFO Steps Down for Health Reasons, Triggering Leadership Shuffle
SAR is trading near its 52-week low of $17.08 (3.3% above the low).
Summary
CFO Henri Steenkamp will step down effective October 31, 2026, for health reasons, relinquishing his roles as chief compliance officer, treasurer, and secretary. He will remain on the board and serve as CFO of the SBIC subsidiaries. The company promoted Christine Ramdihal to chief accounting officer and treasurer, Rochelle Kracoff to chief compliance officer and secretary, and James Soltesz to investment manager and VP of Capital Markets. This follows a challenging quarter with a net loss and NAV decline, and the stock is trading near its 52-week low. The departure of a key financial officer during a period of financial stress adds uncertainty, though the company has named internal successors. Watch for the annual meeting on September 22, 2026, where shareholders may seek clarity on the transition.
