Kommentar: Panodra COO fratræder øjeblikeligt, meddeleler Pandora her til aften. Meddelelsen er stærkt bemærkselsesværdig og bekymrende, og vi vurderer, at der ligger alvorlige problematiske forhold bag den pludselige fratræden.
Pandora meddelte allerede 14. februa, at Pandora havde valgt en ny CEO, og hvis Jeremy Schwartz havde sat næsen op efter posten, ville han enten dengang havde opsagt sit job, eller også ville han have indvilget i at blive til den nye CEO tiltræder. Ingen af delene er tilfældet, så vores hypotese er, at der er sket noget internt i Pandora, som han ikke ønsker at være en del af. “øjeblikkelig fratræden” er højst usædvanlig, især når der ikke er en siddende CEO.

JEREMY SCHWARTZ STEPS DOWN AS COO OF PANDORA
Following the appointment of Alexander Lacik as President & CEO of Pandora on 14 February 2019, Pandora is pleased to announce that Alexander Lacik will take office within the foreseeable future.
Consequently, COO Jeremy Schwartz has today resigned from his position. Following a mutual agreement between the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Jeremy Schwartz, the resignation will take effect as of today. Jeremy Schwartz will be available as advisor to Alexander Lacik to support the onboarding to Pandora.
Peder Tuborgh, Chairman of the Board of Directors, says: “I have sympathy for Jeremy’s decision considering the overlap of competencies between him and Alexander Lacik. I would like to thank Jeremy for his significant contributions to Pandora. Together with Anders Boyer, he has been instrumental in driving the diagnosis phase of Programme NOW, and he is leaving a clear roadmap to execute on”.
