In a recent shift within Funko’s (NASDAQ:) executive ranks, Steve Nave has resigned from his dual role as Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer, effective March 15, 2024. Concurrently, Funko’s Board of Directors has appointed Yves LePendeven as the Acting Chief Financial Officer, also effective from March 15. This strategic move leaves the Chief Operating Officer position unfilled for the time being.
LePendeven, 45, is ascending from his position as Deputy Chief Financial Officer, a role he has held since August 2023. His tenure at Funko began in October 2019, during which he has occupied several senior finance roles.
LePendeven comes with a substantial background in financial planning, having served at Volcom, a subsidiary of the Kering (EPA:) Group, as Vice President, Financial Planning & Analysis. He also has experience from his time as a Director, Financial Planning and Analysis in the corporate finance group at Quiksilver.
His academic credentials include an M.B.A. from the Paul Merage School of Business at the University of California – Irvine and a B.A. in Science, Technology and Society from Stanford University.
