COMFORT SYSTEMS USA INC

Bill George, EVP and CFO, will retire effective after the company files its FY2026 Form 10-K; he co-founded Comfort Systems in 1997 and has been CFO since May 2005.
Julie Shaeff, currently SVP and Chief Accounting Officer, will become EVP and CFO on the transition date; she has been CAO since May 2005 and with the company since 1999.
Company said George's retirement was not the result of any disagreement on operations, policies or practices; he meets the 'Rule of 75' and his RSUs continue to vest.
The Compensation Committee has not yet set Shaeff's compensation as CFO; the company will file a Form 8-K amendment within four business days after that determination.
CEO Brian Lane credited 'thoughtful succession planning' and cited Shaeff's 25-plus years in the finance organization; Shaeff is a CPA and Texas A&M accounting graduate.
