YouGov has replaced its CFO as its share price continues to drop.
The listed research services and data analytics firm said it has mutually agreed with Alex McIntosh that he will step down ‘to pursue other opportunities’ with effect from today.
McIntosh has been with the company for 19 years, including eight years on the board as CFO.
James Davies, former CFO of Monzo Bank, has been appointed his successor, initially on an interim basis.
YouGov’s share price is down 12% in the last five days; 40% in the last six months; and nearly 50% in the last year.
A year ago almost to the day, then-CEO Steve Hatch – a former Meta executive who took the role in 2023 – left the company with immediate effect after its share price had more than halved during his 18 months in charge.
