SolarEdge Director Ronen Faier Resigns Effective May 11
SolarEdge Technologies disclosed the resignation of Chief Financial Officer and director Ronen Faier in an 8-K filing submitted to the SEC. The departure triggers standard executive-transition disclosures and requires the company to identify a successor or interim officer under exchange-listing and securities rules.
en.globes.co.ilSolarEdge Technologies Inc. reported the resignation of Ronen Faier as chief financial officer and member of the board of directors, effective May 11, 2026.
The company filed the disclosure on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on the same date. Item 5.02 of the filing states that Faier notified the company of his decision to resign from both positions. The filing does not cite a cause for the departure.
SolarEdge, which designs and manufactures solar inverters and power optimizers, must now operate without its sitting CFO. The company listed no immediate successor in the 8-K. Under Item 7.01 the filing also furnished a Regulation FD disclosure, and Item 9.01 included exhibits related to the event.
The resignation activates several operational requirements. SolarEdge must announce any permanent or interim replacement through a subsequent 8-K within the four-business-day window prescribed by SEC rules. The board must also address the resulting vacancy on its nine-member board.
Listing standards for Nasdaq, where SolarEdge trades under ticker SEDG, require the company to regain full board compliance within established cure periods.
Downstream effects include the need for updated officer certifications on the company’s next quarterly or annual report, revised internal-control attestations if the interim finance leadership changes signatory authority, and potential adjustments to any forward-looking guidance processes that relied on the departing executive.
The company will also file a separate Form 8-K if it appoints a new principal financial officer, an event that must be disclosed promptly.
This marks the second executive-level departure SolarEdge has reported in the past 24 months. The company last filed an Item 5.02 disclosure concerning senior management changes in 2024. SolarEdge’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K, filed in February 2026, listed Faier as chief financial officer since 2015 and a board member since 2017.
