NEW YORK, Nov. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Teads Holding Co. (Nasdaq: TEAD), the omnichannel outcomes platform (the “Company” or “Teads”), today announced the appointment of Michael Coyle as Chief Financial Officer, effective November 11, 2026. Coyle succeeds Jason Kiviat, who is stepping down from the CFO role after 13 years of dedicated leadership at the Company. To ensure a seamless handover, Kiviat will remain with Teads in a transitional and advisory capacity through the coming months.
Coyle brings a wealth of global finance and transformation experience to Teads, alongside a proven track record of optimizing capital structures and driving operational excellence at major international organizations. His appointment aligns directly with Teads’ strategic focus on accelerating agility, driving operational efficiencies, achieving a sustainable capital structure and prioritizing high-impact growth initiatives.
Prior to joining Teads, Coyle served as Managing Director at The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), where he held senior leadership roles spanning corporate FP&A, divisional CFO responsibilities, and enterprise transformation. Previously, he held senior leadership positions at Merck & Co. in the United States and Switzerland, leading global finance operations, post-merger integration, and large-scale business transformation programs.
“On behalf of our board and leadership team, I want to express our gratitude to Jason for his phenomenal contributions over the past 13 years,” said David Kostman, CEO of Teads. “Jason has been an invaluable partner and a key pillar of our organization. Michael is uniquely equipped for our next chapter and brings a proven track record of executing complex global business transformations, instilling operational rigor and fostering a culture of accountability. We are thrilled to welcome him to the team.”
“Teads has built a differentiated platform and an exceptional team,” said Michael Coyle. “I am stepping into this role because I believe in the company’s strategic plan and its ability to capture the opportunities ahead. I look forward to partnering with David, the leadership team and the exceptional finance team Jason has built to streamline our focus and drive the operational efficiencies necessary to deliver sustainable, long-term value.”
Kiviat will work closely with Coyle and the leadership team to transition his responsibilities, ensuring continuity for Teads’ employees, partners, and financial stakeholders.
“It has been a privilege to help build the Company over the last 13 years and work alongside such a talented group of people,” said Jason Kiviat. “I am incredibly proud of what we have achieved together. As I transition to my next chapter, I am highly confident in Michael’s ability to lead the financial organization and I look forward to supporting him and the leadership team in ensuring a smooth and successful handover.”
