Stock Track | Lockheed Martin Plummets 5.16% as CFO Jesus Malave Abruptly Departs

Stock Track

Apr 17

Shares of Lockheed Martin (LMT) plummeted 5.16% in pre-market trading on Thursday following the unexpected announcement of a major leadership change. The defense giant revealed that its Chief Financial Officer, Jesus "Jay" Malave, is stepping down from his role to pursue other opportunities, catching investors off guard.

In an immediate response to Malave's departure, Lockheed Martin has appointed Evan Scott as the new CFO, effective immediately. Scott, a 26-year veteran of the company, has previously served as Lockheed's treasurer and CFO for two business segments. Despite Scott's extensive experience within the company, the abrupt nature of the transition has sparked concerns among investors about potential underlying issues or strategic shifts.

The company aims to reassure stakeholders by announcing that it will reaffirm its previously-issued 2025 guidance during its upcoming first quarter earnings call on April 22. However, the market's initial reaction suggests that investors are approaching this sudden change with caution. As Lockheed Martin navigates this transition, all eyes will be on how the new CFO, Evan Scott, addresses any concerns and maintains the company's financial stability in the competitive defense sector.
