Patheon CFO Resigns

Eric Evans, Patheon’s executive vice president and chief financial officer, has resigned from the company. Until a new CFO has been appointed, Patheon’s existing finance and operations teams will manage Mr. Evans’ duties.

“Mr. Evans has helped to guide the creation and development of a company strategy which is aimed at continuing our focus on customer service, quality, scientific excellence and a commitment toward improving both top line and bottom line growth. The board and I thank Eric for his considerable contributions to Patheon and wish him every success in the future,” said Jim Mullen, chief executive officer of Patheon. “Patheon is already seeing progress towards execution of its new company strategy announced in September with specific focus on efforts to further enhance capacity and look at costs. We have commenced a search for our new CFO.”
