Investors are expected to watch for the company’s updated outlook for the short-term period, given the installation of an interim chief finance officer (CFO) following the departure of Nitesh Sharan to assume a leadership role in a quantum computing company.

Sharan, who officially stepped down last April 3, was temporarily replaced by Chief Product Officer James Hom, who served as the company’s first CFO from its founding in 2005.
