Software maker Phoenix Technologies Ltd. is searching for a new CFO.
The 424-person company, which is best known for creating PC BIOS software, on Tuesday said Randy Bolten, its chief financial officer, has resigned.
Bolten, who had held the CFO post since June 2003, left to pursue other interests, Phoenix said in a statement.
“We thank Randy for his contributions to Phoenix and wish him well in his future endeavors. The search for a new CFO will begin immediately,” Albert Sisto, the companys CEO, said in a statement.
