Kimco Realty names Richard Saltzman independent chairman; Milton Cooper to step down

Neutral Impact 4 of 5 leadership Written later

Kimco Realty's founder and Executive Chairman, Milton Cooper, will not stand for re-election and will leave the board and his executive chairman role at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, becoming Chairman Emeritus. Director Richard Saltzman was appointed to become the non-executive, independent Chairman of the Board at that meeting, and two new directors, Nancy Lashine and Ross Cooper, joined the board effective January 21, 2025. The changes alter Kimco's board leadership structure but the filing reports no financial results or guidance.
