\n\u201cWith the execution of our long-term strategy, CyberArk is poised for continued success,\u201d said Mokady. \u201cOur subscription transition has created a durable business model and we have become the recognized leader in identity security based on the power of our innovation engine. First as CRO and then as COO, Matt has played an instrumental role driving our transformational change and has established a proven track record as a results-driven leader. He shares my passion for our mission, culture, and people, which is critically important to me as founder of CyberArk, and we\u2019ve built an enduring partnership based on friendship, mutual respect and common values. Under Matt\u2019s leadership as CEO and with the support of the Board and all employees, I am confident CyberArk will continue to thrive.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\n\u201cMy commitment to CyberArk is unwavering. As Founder of the Company, my ultimate goal was to become Executive Chair and continue to be actively involved in CyberArk, shaping its future and helping ensure the Company is successful. Given our strong execution, the timing is right to move forward with these changes in 2023,\u201d continued Mokady. \u201cIn collaboration with Matt, I will help align our long-term strategy to our mission, preserve our unique culture, and cultivate our strong brand. I will also leverage my over 20 years of experience building and fostering key relationships with customers and partners. My enthusiasm for CyberArk has never been greater and the Company\u2019s future has never been brighter.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\n\u201cUnder Udi\u2019s leadership, CyberArk has become a cybersecurity leader with $570 million in Annual Recurring Revenue, more than 8,000 customers and over 2,700 loyal, committed employees,\u201d said Gadi Tirosh, CyberArk\u2019s Lead Independent Director. \u201cUdi\u2019s accomplishments are countless, and I look forward to working with him even more closely as Executive Chair. Matt has done an exceptional job as Chief Operating Officer, leading the subscription transformation and spearheading the cross-functional planning process for 2023. Matt optimized the go-to-market organization for CyberArk\u2019s Identity Security Platform and delivered fantastic results, demonstrated most visibly by the meaningful ARR outperformance in both 2021 and 2022. We believe this plan will result in a smooth transition, including leadership continuity, strategy execution and strong financial performance. On behalf of the Board, I extend our congratulations to both Udi and Matt.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI am honored by this opportunity and want to thank Udi, the management team, and the Board for their ongoing support and confidence,\u201d said Cohen. \u201cSince joining CyberArk, Udi has been a friend and mentor, and I look forward to working alongside him in his role as Executive Chair. The unique culture that Udi has built is one of CyberArk\u2019s key differentiators and preserving it is one of my top priorities. Our employees, who have worked so hard to build CyberArk into an industry leader, continue to fuel and execute our mission. Udi and I, along with the executive leadership team, designed our 2023 plan and long-term strategy to not only capitalize on our massive opportunity and leadership position in identity security, but also to deliver profitable growth. I am excited to help lead CyberArk into the future.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
