Ford will continue in post through the transition to new leadership. The board has started a formal search process for his successor, the company added.

The company also reconfirms its previously upgraded market guidance for fiscal 2026 and will provide more information at its trading update on March 12.

“This would be the right time to handover to new leadership,” Ford said. “I will work closely with the board and my outstanding team over the coming months to ensure a smooth transition.”
