Yahoo announced today that the company will be bringing on Tim Morse to replace outgoing CFO Blake Jorgensen. Morse, who is the CFO of Altera, a semiconductor firm, also previously served as the CFO and general manager of business development for General Electric Plastics.
Bartz seems to be bringing in a seasoned executive with series management chops who has both gone through GE’s rigorous training program and experienced the wild ride of being at a tech company.
Yahoo made waves recently with CEO Carol Bartz hinting at a possible search deal, for potential “boatloads of money” with Microsoft a few weeks ago.
Went to Boston College, my alma mater. Make us Eagles proud Tim, good luck!
I’m actually excited for Yahoo’s future again.
Future Ivan? Do you work for M$?
Hillarious
looks like Poindexter is cross-eyed ….
I really hope they don’t sell out to Microsoft and instead keep refining their search engine. I’ve been using Yahoo’s search for a while now and in some ways it’s better than Google.
Hope new CEO will bring Yahoo as 3-4 year ago. A giant on Search Engine.
another in a long line of “blah” execs at y! wow they couldn’t even bring in anyone in the industry…thats a sad sign
so far the reign of bartz is sound and fury signifying nothing
Boatloads of money: a good start for a new bookkeeper.
Lot’s of money is sometimes a bigger problem than just enough money.
hahahahah funny pic. Like high school yearbook.
yahoo better catch up they need more that a new CFO they probably need a new business plan, after letter Google, Facebook, my space steam roll them
