GigaCloud Technology Inc Announces CFO Transition
August 08 2024 - 4:05PM
GigaCloud Technology Inc (Nasdaq: GCT) (“GigaCloud” or the
“Company”), a pioneer of global end-to-end B2B technology solutions
for large parcel merchandise, today announced the resignation of
David Lau, Chief Financial Officer, to pursue other business
interests effective August 19, 2024. Erica Wei, the Company’s Vice
President of Finance, will serve as interim Chief Financial Officer
starting August 19, 2024.
Lau will stay as an advisor to the Company until September 19,
2024 to assist with the transition of his duties. The appointment
of Wei as interim Chief Financial Officer takes effect on the
second anniversary of the Company’s initial public offering, and
provides continuity of the strong foundation laid by Lau, whose
strategic leadership and unwavering commitment to accelerating
growth and innovation have been pivotal in positioning GigaCloud
for long-term success.
“On behalf of the entire GigaCloud team, I extend our deepest
gratitude to David for his extraordinary leadership and invaluable
contributions to the Company,” said Larry Wu, Founder, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer of GigaCloud. “With David’s support, we
achieved the remarkable milestone of going public in August 2022.
His strategic acumen was crucial in the successful acquisitions of
Noble House and Wondersign, which have greatly enhanced our market
position. These achievements, among many others under David’s
leadership, have collectively created value for our shareholders.
We wish David all the best in the next chapter of his career.”
“It has been a privilege to serve as CFO of GigaCloud and
contribute to its remarkable growth,” said Lau. “Leading the
finance team through our IPO was a significant accomplishment. As
the Company enters a new phase of expansion, I believe it is the
right time for me to pursue new opportunities. I am confident that
the Company’s robust foundation, coupled with Erica’s expertise,
will propel GigaCloud to even greater heights.”
Wei joined GigaCloud in August 2023 and brings a wealth of
financial expertise to the Company. In the past year, Wei has made
substantial contributions to GigaCloud as it successfully
transitioned to a U.S. domestic issuer and leading the compliance
efforts as required under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
Previously, Wei spent nearly a decade in PwC’s Los Angeles office
advancing through positions of increasing responsibility to Senior
Manager within the firm’s auditing services, while serving a
diverse portfolio of high-profile clients, including various
Fortune 500 companies. Based at the Company’s headquarters in El
Monte, California, Wei will strengthen GigaCloud’s engagement with
the global investment community as it continues to execute its
growth strategy.
