New Horizon Aircraft names Tom Hearne to board and audit committee chair after Nomura exit
New Horizon Aircraft Ltd. said audit committee chair Trisha Nomura resigned from its board for personal reasons, and on September 4, 2026 the board appointed Thomas Hearne as a Class I director and Audit Committee chair. The filing says Nomura's resignation was not due to any disagreement with the company, and Hearne's appointment fills the board vacancy, which matters to shareholders because it changes who oversees financial reporting.
