AcuCort AB (Spotlight Stock Market: ACUC) announces today that the recently recruited permanent CEO will not assume his position in the company. For personal reasons, Carl Johan Fredin has chosen to end his employment contract with AcuCort. The company's interim CEO Ann Gidner will remain in her current position until further notice.
On March 16, 2020 AcuCort announced that the Board of the company had finalized the process to recruit a permanent CEO. The company's new CEO would assume his position at the end of May, which the company now announces will not happen.
"Of course, it is unfortunate that our intended CEO will not assume his position, but sometimes events occur that change ready-made plans and then you have to respect that. In this sudden situation, it is gratifying that Ann Gidner has the possibility to remain in her role as interim CEO until further notice. I also want to take this opportunity and thank Ann Gidner for her very strong contributions during the year as well as for her continued commitment to AcuCort," says Ebba Fåhraeus, Chairman of the Board of AcuCort AB.
