The Chief Financial Officer of HF Sinclair Corporation, Atanas Atanasov, has voluntarily stepped away from his position, according to a company filing released Friday. This development follows closely behind a similar move by the company’s top executive Tim Go just one week earlier.<\/p>

The oil refining company’s stock dropped 4% during pre-market trading following the announcement.<\/p>

According to the filing, HF Sinclair launched an internal investigation into its disclosure practices last week.<\/p>

The company revealed Friday that this internal examination started on January 26, triggered when Atanasov expressed worries that certain decisions made by Go had established a negative “tone at the top” regarding the company’s 2025 disclosure procedures.<\/p>

As the investigation progressed, the board of directors developed their own concerns about specific decisions made by Atanasov, which led to his decision to request voluntary leave.<\/p>

HF Sinclair announced it has wrapped up the internal investigation and determined that the executives’ actions did not establish a negative “tone at the top” concerning the 2025 disclosure procedures.<\/p>

The oil company also stated that its disclosure controls and procedures continue to function properly.<\/p>

Vivek Garg has been appointed to serve as temporary CFO, while Franklin Myers is currently filling the interim CEO role.<\/p>

HF Sinclair indicated it plans to work out mutually acceptable departure agreements with both Go and Atanasov.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
