Coty ( (COTY) ) just unveiled an update.

On December 20, 2025, Coty’s board appointed former Procter & Gamble executive Markus Strobel as Executive Chairman and Interim CEO, effective January 1, 2026, with a significant compensation package of salary, bonus eligibility and long-term equity incentives tied to service and performance through 2028. Strobel, known for leading P&G’s Global Skin & Personal Care business and revitalizing prestige brands in Asia and other key regions, will guide Coty at what the company calls a pivotal moment, as it conducts a strategic review of its Consumer Beauty division and seeks to consolidate its leadership and profitable growth prospects in both prestige and mass beauty. The leadership changes also include the planned separation of CEO Sue Y. Nabi, who will step down and leave the board on December 31, 2025 under a separation agreement that provides cash in lieu of notice and partial vesting of restricted stock units, while other unvested equity is forfeited. In parallel, long-standing Chairman Peter Harf will resign from the board on December 31, 2025 after more than three decades of involvement, to be succeeded in board leadership by Strobel and joined by new director Patricia Capel, who will take a board seat and join the Remuneration and Nomination Committee on January 1, 2026, reflecting a broad reshaping of Coty’s top governance structure.
