The New Money Guy
According to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing, CPI Aerostructures tapped Robert Mannix as Chief Financial Officer and Secretary on Tuesday. This isn't Mannix's first rodeo—he spent the past seven years as Executive Vice President, Chief Accounting Officer, and Head of Tax and Treasury at West Technology Group LLC, a cloud-based technology company.
Before that, Mannix held senior finance positions at Verint Systems Inc. and Motorola Inc., and logged 11 years at Ernst & Young's Assurance and Advisory Services Group. In other words, he's seen a few balance sheets in his time.
Show Me The Money
Mannix will pull in a $300,000 annual base salary. Starting in fiscal 2026, he becomes eligible for a 40% target bonus and a 40% long-term incentive award, both calculated on his base salary and payable in restricted stock with time-based and performance-based vesting conditions.
He's replacing Pamela Levesque, who had been serving as Interim CFO and Secretary.
Where The Stock Stands
The after-hours pop is a welcome development for a stock that's been struggling. CPI Aerostructures is down 27.15% year-to-date, though it has traded 7.53% higher over the past six months, suggesting some recent momentum.
The New York-based aircraft component manufacturer carries a market capitalization of $41.40 million, with shares trading in an annual range of $2.02 to $5.85. At $3.69 after-hours, the stock sits comfortably in the middle of that range, which investors appear to view as reasonable territory given the leadership upgrade.
