278 material Form 8-K filings that 243 companies we cover made with the SEC in May 2024, each read and summarized by AI: what happened, the key figures, whether it reads positive or negative for shareholders, and how big a deal it is (impact 1-5). All of them were written later, when past filings were added: a selection, not every 8-K of the month (see the note below).
Cirrus Logic said Chief Financial Officer Venk Nathamuni will resign effective May 24, 2024, to pursue other professional opportunities outside the semiconductor industry. The Board appointed Ulf Habermann, the company's Principal Accounting Officer, as interim CFO while the company searches for a permanent successor, which matters to shareholders because it changes the company's finance leadership during the search.
Nathamuni gave notice on May 11, 2024; his resignation takes effect May 24, 2024.
The company states the departure is not the result of any disagreement with the company or its Board on operations, financial reporting, policies, or practices.
On May 14, 2024, the Board appointed Habermann as interim CFO, and he will also continue as Principal Accounting Officer.
Habermann has been with the company since February 2002; no new compensatory arrangements were entered into for his interim role.

Briefs are written by AI from the filing text and can contain mistakes — open the filing before acting on anything. Impact (1-5) and tone are the AI's reading of the filing for shareholders, not a price forecast. Not investment advice.
Briefs marked “Written later” were written in November 2026 for filings that were by then more than three weeks old, so months before mid-October 2026 hold a selection: every material 8-K of the past year for the 100 largest companies we cover and the last 15 important 8-Ks of every other one. Briefs the number check holds back are not shown or counted. Also: the last 45 days, briefs by company, A–Z and the live SEC filings wire.
