-Reaffirms 2024 Financial Guidance-

APi Group Corporation (NYSE: APG) (“APi” or the “Company”) today announced that Kevin Krumm, Chief Financial Officer, will step down from his role on December 13, 2024, to accept another opportunity. David Jackola, current Chief Financial Officer and Vice President of Transformation at APi International, will assume the role of interim Chief Financial Officer upon Krumm’s departure and until a successor is appointed.

Jackola is a seasoned senior finance executive with broad functional and global experience and a deep understanding of APi’s business. Prior to his role as CFO and VP of Transformation at APi International, he held the position of Vice President, Controller and Chief Accounting Officer at APi Group. At APi International, David has helped drive APi’s strategy centered on organic revenue growth and margin expansion supported by improved inspection, service and monitoring revenue mix, customer and project selection, pricing, value capture synergies, and strategic M&A.

Russ Becker, APi’s President and Chief Executive Officer stated: “I’ve appreciated Kevin’s partnership in building upon our solid financial foundation. I’m grateful for his leadership and contributions to APi and wish him success in his next endeavor.”

Becker continued, “We are thrilled to welcome David back to our leadership team at headquarters as interim CFO. David’s extensive experience and familiarity in our finance and global operations uniquely positions him to seamlessly support our continued growth and deliver on our commitments."

Kevin Krumm commented: “It has been a privilege to serve as APi’s Chief Financial Officer. The Company is well positioned to achieve its strategic goals and sustain its upward trajectory. I look forward to supporting David and am confident in his ability to lead APi’s finance team.”

The Company has initiated a search process with a leading search firm to identify a successor for the CFO role. Additionally, the Company has reaffirmed the 2024 net revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance recently provided on October 31, 2024, and looks forward to providing an additional update in the middle of December as we approach year end 2024.
