Bandwidth Appoints Charles Schroeder as Independent Director, Board Expands to Six
Bandwidth Inc. expanded its board from five to six members on October 28, 2026, and appointed Charles R. Schroeder, a former Silver Lake managing director, as a Class II director effective immediately. The board determined he is independent under SEC and NASDAQ rules, and he will receive the same restricted stock unit grants as the company's other non-employee directors. The filing does not disclose financial results, and the appointment adds one independent director to the board.
Key points
- Board expanded from 5 to 6 members; Schroeder appointed October 28, 2026, effective immediately
- Schroeder spent more than a decade at Silver Lake, rising to managing director, and served on several portfolio company boards
- Board has not yet decided which committees, if any, he will join; he receives non-employee director compensation with restricted stock units
