PPG · PPG Industries, Inc.

PPG's appointment of Jamie A. Beggs as CFO signals a planned leadership transition, with Vincent J. Morales retiring after 41 years, ensuring continuity through a multi-month handover. Beggs, aged 49, offers extensive experience as CFO at Avient since 2020, prior roles at Hunt Consolidated and Celanese, and board service at International Paper, positioning her to drive PPG's growth strategy in paints, coatings, and specialty materials. Her compensation package, featuring an $800K base, substantial signing bonus and equity grants totaling $5.7M in 2026, reflects the board's commitment to attracting top talent for this critical role overseeing finance, corporate development, and IT. Minimal related-party exposure from PPG's small purchases from Avient underscores routine business dealings with no conflicts.
