Exyn Technologies CEO Declet resigns after $286,000 in personal expenses found

Negative Impact 4 of 5 leadership Written later

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.

Key points

  • 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.
  • Benjamin Williams, the company's COO since May 2019, was appointed interim CEO; his base salary was raised from $294,000 to $355,000.
  • Gregory McNeal, an existing director, was appointed non-executive chairman with an additional cash retainer of $35,000.
