AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · WEX (WEX)

WEX directors Ghosh and VanWoerkom to retire; David Foss named Vice Chair and Lead Independent Director

Neutral Impact 3 of 5 leadership Written later

WEX said directors Shikhar Ghosh and Jack VanWoerkom will retire from the board at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and will not stand for re-election, and that the board will shrink from twelve seats to ten. David Foss, a director since November, will become Vice Chair and Lead Independent Director, and the company said neither retirement stemmed from a disagreement over operations, policies or practices. The filing includes a press release with a preview of fourth-quarter results, but it gives no figures and says only that the company closed the year with a strong quarter.

Key points

  • Ghosh and VanWoerkom retire effective at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders
  • Board seats reduced from 12 to 10 effective at the Annual Meeting
  • David Foss to become Vice Chair and Lead Independent Director; he joined the board in November
  • Press release previews fourth-quarter results in general terms only, with no specific figures given
