FOXO TECHNOLOGIES INC. 8-K

What Happened
FOXO Technologies (FOXO) announced in an 8-K that Chief Financial Officer Sylwia Nowak Hauman resigned effective March 18, 2026. Ms. Hauman’s resignation letter raised concerns about the company’s internal control environment, financial reporting processes, and finance-team resourcing; the Company expressly disagrees with those characterizations and says its internal controls and reporting processes have been significantly improved. On March 24, 2026, FOXO appointed Celene Laurene Rattray Grant (age 44) as its new CFO. Ms. Grant is a Certified Public Accountant with over 15 years of finance and healthcare industry experience and has previously supported the company as a consultant; she will receive a $200,000 annual base salary and be eligible for a discretionary annual bonus up to $25,000.

The resignation letter flagged concerns about controls and resourcing, while the company says those issues have been addressed and commits to filing its upcoming Form 10-K on time. Investors should watch the company's forthcoming 10-K and any additional disclosures about internal controls or restatements for further detail on the financial reporting outlook.
