Kristen Dalton will serve as interim CFO from 1 January 2027. The Q3 2026 results showed a revenue decline and a net loss, triggering an 18% drop in the stock and a downgrade by Bank of America.

The leadership changes and earnings miss caused the shares to fall about 18%, and Bank of America cut its price target to $8 from $15, indicating lower near‑term valuation expectations.
