107 executive and board moves out of SEC 8-K filings this run — 44 departures, 46 of them C-suite, every name checked against the filing itself.

Every number on this page is read from the Champion Moves feed's 2 September 2026 run. Nothing here is typed by hand, so nothing here goes stale quietly: when the feed re-runs, the page is rebuilt from the new export.

Who left

44 of the 107 moves in this run are departures, and 46 of all moves are C-suite. A departure is the signal worth acting on fastest: the relationship a vendor spent a year building usually leaves with the person, and the replacement rarely inherits the commitment.

Only 63 rows name a prior employer — 8-K filings state the leaving role far more often than they state where the person is going.

14 moves are dated ahead of the run date, the furthest at 2027-01-01. Those are already filed and already public — they simply have not taken effect yet.

Who arrived

11 arrivals, 21 promotions and 31 board appointments land in the same window. Board appointments are the quiet half of this feed: they rarely make the trade press, and they change who signs off on budget.

Every name here is verified against the filing bytes rather than a press summary, so a title that never appeared in the 8-K never appears in the row.

Where moves cluster

6 filers appear more than once in this run: Idaho Copper Corp (4), Pinnacle Acquisition Corp (4), CONOCOPHILLIPS (3), HWH International Inc. (3), NVE CORP /NEW/ (3) and ASHLAND INC. (2). Several moves at one company in one window is usually a reorganisation, not a coincidence.

The rest of the run is a long tail: 43 distinct filers for 107 moves.

  • Idaho Copper Corp — 4 moves in this run
  • Pinnacle Acquisition Corp — 4 moves in this run
  • CONOCOPHILLIPS — 3 moves in this run
  • HWH International Inc. — 3 moves in this run
  • NVE CORP /NEW/ — 3 moves in this run
  • ASHLAND INC. — 2 moves in this run

What the filing can and cannot tell you

An 8-K states the fact of the change and its effective date. It does not state the reason, and it frequently omits the destination. Where a field is empty in the table below, the filing did not support it — the gap is not filled with a guess.

That is why the effective date matters more than the filing date. It is the date the org chart actually changes, and it is the one the feed sorts on.

Sources
Every move is extracted from a filed SEC 8-K. Each row keeps the archive URL of the filing it was read from.

Generated from the Champion Moves export dated 2 September 2026. Every published value keeps the URL it was observed on, and rows whose numbers or identities did not survive the sanity filter are withheld rather than corrected — the count is stated above so the denominator is never hidden. Nothing on this page is written or estimated by a model.

Champion tracking decays fast — a list of moves is worth reading the week it is filed and close to worthless a quarter later. This page is rendered from the feed for exactly that reason: it is regenerated with the run, not rewritten by hand.
