On February 3, 2026, HP Inc. (“HP” or the “Company”) announced that Enrique Lores has stepped down as President and Chief
Executive Officer and a member of the board of directors of HP (the “Board”), effective as of the end of day on February 2, 2026. Mr. Lores has elected to pursue an opportunity outside of HP. The Board has formed a CEO Search Committee to
identify the Company’s next permanent Chief Executive Officer.
On February 2, 2026, HP appointed
Bruce Broussard, age 63, who is currently serving as a
member of the Board, as interim Chief Executive Officer, effective as of February 3, 2026. Since 2024, Mr. Broussard has served as an advisor to Humana Inc., a leading healthcare company, where he previously served as President and CEO for more
than a decade. Before that, Mr. Broussard was Chief Executive Officer of McKesson Specialty/US Oncology, Inc., where he also held senior positions including Chief Financial Officer, President and Chairman of the Board during his 11-year tenure.
In connection with these transition matters, the Board
approved Mr. Broussard’s compensation package for his services as interim Chief Executive Officer, consisting of monthly cash compensation of $362,500, as well as a one-time sign-on equity award in the
form of restricted stock units with respect to shares of common stock of the Company with a grant date value of $7,000,000. The sign-on equity award is subject to the
terms and conditions of the Company’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan and applicable award agreement with Mr. Broussard and will cliff-vest on February 3, 2027, subject to
Mr. Broussard’s continued employment with the Company and/or continued service as a member of the Board. While serving as interim Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Broussard will continue serving as a member of the Board but will not receive any additional cash or equity compensation for such service.
In connection with his appointment as interim Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Broussard has resigned as a member and
Committee Chair of the HR and Compensation Committee of the Board as well as a member of the Nominating, Governance and Social Responsibility Committee of the Board.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Broussard and any other persons pursuant to which he is appointed
to serve as the interim Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Broussard has no direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, and Mr. Broussard has no family relationships with
any director or executive officer of HP.
