Summary

Wiley promoted Frank Scognamiglio to Chief Accounting Officer, elevating him from his Global Controller role held since April 2025. The appointment represents an internal succession with continuity: Scognamiglio has been with the company and steps into the principal accounting officer role with institutional knowledge. Christopher Caridi, the outgoing Chief Accounting Officer, remains with Wiley in a Business Transformation role through his planned April 2027 retirement, ensuring a smooth transition of accounting responsibilities.

This is a routine executive succession with no disruption to financial reporting or controls. The internal promotion and extended transition period suggest orderly planning rather than an unexpected departure.
