Perrigo (PRGO) announced the immediate resignation of President and Chief Executive Officer Patrick Lockwood-Taylor, effective June 7, 2026, due to personal conduct deemed inconsistent with the company's Code of Conduct and core values, appointing Albert A. Manzone as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer.
The Board's decision explicitly states the conduct was unrelated to Perrigo's business, strategy, operations, financial reporting, or results, mitigating concerns about the company's core performance. Albert A. Manzone, an existing Director and Audit Committee member, assumes the interim role, stepping down from the Audit Committee and his position as Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Monte-Carlo Societe des Bains de Mer during his service.
Perrigo's Board, now reduced from nine to eight members, has initiated a comprehensive search for a permanent Chief Executive Officer. This leadership transition, while sudden, aims to maintain stability with an internal appointment and a clear path to finding a long-term leader, as reported by TradingView based on an SEC 8-K filing.
