Insights

Brixmor discloses an internally managed CEO succession with defined pay terms.

Brixmor is executing a structured CEO transition, with James M. Taylor Jr. retiring as Chief Executive Officer and director on January 1, 2026. The board selected internal candidate Brian T. Finnegan, already President, Chief Operating Officer and interim CEO, as permanent CEO and a director, which indicates continuity in day-to-day leadership and strategy rather than an abrupt change.

The amended and restated employment agreement for Mr. Finnegan runs through December 31, 2028 and sets a minimum base salary of $900,000, performance-based bonus opportunities at 100%, 125% and 200% of salary, and target equity awards of at least $3,000,000 annually starting in 2026. This mix of cash and equity links a significant portion of compensation to performance and share-based incentives, aligning a multi‑year commitment between the board and the new CEO.
