Insights

Corporate Governance Analyst

Board member will depart at the 2025 annual meeting; no dispute reported.

The announcement that John P. Bilbrey will not stand for re-election is a routine board turnover disclosure and the company explicitly states there is no disagreement with management or the board. That language reduces the chance this is tied to governance conflict.

Because Mr. Bilbrey will remain in his role until November 13, 2025, the company has time to manage succession and disclose any nominee changes before the meeting.
