Edwards Lifesciences Announces Appointment of CFO<\/b><\/p>\n

IRVINE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nEdwards Lifesciences (NYSE: EW) today announced the appointment of Theodora (\u201cDoretta\u201d) Mistras as the company\u2019s corporate vice president and chief financial officer (CFO), effective at the end of May. Mistras will succeed Scott Ullem, who announced in October his planned transition from the CFO role.<\/p>\n

\nMistras joins Edwards from Viatris, where she has served as CFO since March 2024, leading the company\u2019s global finance organization and overseeing financial planning, reporting and operational finance across a complex, global business. Prior to Viatris, she was a managing director in healthcare investment banking at Citigroup Global Markets, and earlier in her career held senior leadership roles in healthcare investment banking at Goldman Sachs. Mistras brings decades of healthcare leadership experience helping guide corporate boards and executive teams on corporate finance, strategy and investor relations. She holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in international studies from the University of Pennsylvania and a bachelor\u2019s degree in economics from the Wharton School.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe are very pleased to welcome Doretta to Edwards as our next CFO,\u201d said Bernard Zovighian, Edwards\u2019 CEO. \u201cDoretta\u2019s broad experience will be instrumental as we execute our differentiated strategy. We look forward to her leadership as we continue to invest in innovation, and also deliver distinguished and durable financial results and long-term value to patients, customers, shareholders and the broader healthcare ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nUllem has served as Edwards\u2019 CFO since 2014. \u201cWe would like to once again thank Scott for his outstanding leadership, partnership and impact,\u201d Zovighian added. \u201cHis commitment to a thoughtful transition and his continued support as a strategic advisor in the months ahead reflects the discipline and continuity that have long defined Edwards\u2019 approach to leadership. We are grateful for Scott\u2019s numerous contributions over the years that have helped to strengthen our company both strategically and financially.\u201d<\/p>\n
