Erica Wei, the Company’s Vice President of Finance, will serve as interim Chief Financial Officer starting August 19, 2024.

“On behalf of the entire GigaCloud team, I extend our deepest gratitude to David for his extraordinary leadership and invaluable contributions to the Company,” said Larry Wu, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of GigaCloud. “With David’s support, we achieved the remarkable milestone of going public in August 2022. His strategic acumen was crucial in the successful acquisitions of Noble House and Wondersign, which have greatly enhanced our market position. These achievements, among many others under David’s leadership, have collectively created value for our shareholders. We wish David all the best in the next chapter of his career.”

“It has been a privilege to serve as CFO of GigaCloud and contribute to its remarkable growth,” said Lau. “Leading the finance team through our IPO was a significant accomplishment. As the Company enters a new phase of expansion, I believe it is the right time for me to pursue new opportunities. I am confident that the Company’s robust foundation, coupled with Erica’s expertise, will propel GigaCloud to even greater heights.”

Wei joined GigaCloud in August 2023 and brings a wealth of financial expertise to the Company. In the past year, Wei has made substantial contributions to GigaCloud as it successfully transitioned to a U.S. domestic issuer and leading the compliance efforts as required under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Previously, Wei spent nearly a decade in PwC’s Los Angeles office advancing through positions of increasing responsibility to Senior Manager within the firm’s auditing services, while serving a diverse portfolio of high-profile clients, including various Fortune 500 companies. Based at the Company’s headquarters in El Monte, California, Wei will strengthen GigaCloud’s engagement with the global investment community as it continues to execute its growth strategy.
