Hertz Global Holdings (HTZ Quick QuoteHTZ - Free Report) appointed a chief financial officer (CFO) following its incumbent R. Eric Esper’s resignation.

Notably, Esper decided to step down in pursuit of a new opportunity.

The managerial reshuffling at Hertz, which filed for bankruptcy protection on May 22 as its business was ravaged by the coronavirus pandemic, highlights its lack of stability in executive leadership roles. In fact, its CEO Paul Stone is also new to the job, having assumed office only on May 18, 2020. Notably, the stock has shed 57.1% of value since the bankruptcy filing.

Given Cheung’s vast experience, management expects his appointment to be a step toward successfully reviving the company’s fortunes.
