Exyn Technologies said its former CEO and Chairman, Brandon Torres Declet, resigned effective August 19, 2026, after an internal investigation found about $286,000 in personal expenses charged to a company credit card and recorded as business expenses. Benjamin Williams was named interim CEO and Gregory McNeal became non-executive chairman. Shareholders face a leadership change and a governance problem tied to expense controls and financial records.
Declet agreed to repay the approximately $286,000 in Personal Travel Expenses, and the company agreed to hold off on immediately pursuing legal action to recover them.
Declet will receive no severance, option acceleration, or other special treatment of vested equity under the Separation Agreement dated August 25, 2026.
