Comtech Shakes Up Leadership Ahead of $157.5 Million Unit Sale

As Comtech Telecommunications prepares to divest its satellite and space division to Gilat Satellite Networks, the company is installing a new financial and legal command structure. Richard Nyren will assume the role of chief financial officer, while Amy Rothstein-Hovey joins to steer the firm’s legal operations through the transition.

Comtech Shakes Up Leadership Ahead of $157.5 Million Unit Sale

Nyren is set to step into his new position following the release of the company's first-quarter financial report, expected by Dec. 10. He arrives from Aireon, where he previously guided the startup toward profitability. He succeeds Michael Bondi, who has held the finance chief post since 2018 and is departing as part of the broader restructuring tied to the $157.5 million divestiture announced in June.

Rothstein-Hovey, who began her tenure on Oct. 1, will transition into the chief legal officer and corporate secretary roles once the sale concludes. She brings experience from Nexxen International, where she served as chief legal officer and head of corporate development. She replaces Don Walther, who joined the firm in 2023 and will remain in his post through the closing of the deal to ensure continuity during the handover.
