Brixmor Officials Resign After Negative Audit Committee Review
On February 8, 2016, Brixmor announced that its Chief Executive Officer, Michael Carroll, President and Chief Financial Officer Michael Pappagallo, Chief Accounting Officer Steven Splain, and an accounting employee resigned, effective immediately. These resignations followed a negative audit committee review of Brixmor’s non-GAAP reporting measure. The review discovered that employees were “smoothing” income to make quarterly net operating income more consistent. On this news, Brixmor stock fell $5.32 per share, or over 20%, to close at $21.10 per share on February 8, 2016.
