In fairness, you also have to look at the fact that the CFO has been there for some time - I believe over 4 years - so he's probably fully vested. And, the kind of person who would join a company at $2.5 MM is very different from one who would enjoy it at $150 MM.

At $2.5 MM - you're an entrepreneur. you get financing, take the company public, build systems, develop strategy, etc.

At $150 MM - you're in meetings all day long and become a bureaucrat.
I'm sure this guy, with his track record, could find incredible new deals - maybe he's even looking for a CEO job. I wouldn't read much into this that we don't already know. He's been there long enough that he probably just wanted a change.

The other possibility is that he is taking some heat inside from the board/CEO for not getting the stock price up - which would be a little unfair given their revenue results. I could see the board and key investors getting on the CEO, and the CEO has to find some scapegoat somewhere.

Again, in this situation, I think the news is a non-event.
