 Lazydays Holdings Inc. announced Thursday that William Murnane is stepping down as its chairman and chief executive, as the RV dealership operator faces activist pressure.<\/p>\n
Robert DeVincenzi, lead independent director of the board, will serve as interim CEO beginning Jan. 1, Lazydays said in a statement. Christopher Shackelton, a current director on the board, will take over as chairman, effective immedia<\/a>tely.<\/p>\n
\n
Mr. Murnane did not immediately return a request for comment. He was named chairman of Lazydays’ board in 2009, after his former employer, private-equity firm Wayzata Investment Partners, bought a major stake in Lazydays following its bankruptcy.<\/p>\n
The company said Mr. Murnane told the board he would resign as chairman and CEO on Dec. 22 and March 16, respectively, according to the statement from Lazydays.<\/p>\n
The board elected to accelerated his transition to Jan. 1, per the terms of Mr. Murnane’s employment terms, it said.<\/p>\n
The board has enlisted an executive search firm to search for a permanent successor, Lazydays said.<\/p>\n
Shares in Lazydays fell 1.3% in after-hours trading following the announcement. The stock is up just over 28% this year.<\/p>\n
Kanen Wealth Management LLC, which has a 6.5% stake in Lazydays, recently agitated for a management shakeup at Lazydays, writing in a Nov. 30 letter to the company’s board that Mr. Murnane “is a poor allocator of capital.”<\/p>\n
Kanen said in its letter that Mr. Murnane has “stabilized the business” but now the company should find an auto industry executive “with a track record of significant growth and outperformance.”<\/p>\n
<\/div>\n
In Lazydays’ announcement, Mr. DeVincenzi said, “As part of the transition, the Board intends to conduct a full review of the Company’s capital allocation framework.”<\/p>\n
