Martin Marietta Materials recently underwent a significant change in its executive leadership. James A.J. Nickolas, the company's Chief Financial Officer, resigned effective April 11, 2025. Nickolas's departure is attributed to personal reasons, allowing him to relocate to Chicago and take on a new role at another company. Robert J. Cardin has been appointed as the Interim Chief Financial Officer, continuing his role as Senior Vice President, Controller, and Chief Accounting Officer. The company has initiated a search for a permanent CFO with the assistance of an executive search firm.

Nickolas's new position at CNH Industrial comes with a substantial salary increase and a comprehensive compensation package. This move is part of a broader executive shuffle at CNH Industrial, where Oddone Incisa, the current CFO, is stepping down. Nickolas will succeed Incisa, who has been with the company for 28 years. This transition is expected to bring fresh perspectives and strategic insights to CNH Industrial's financial operations.
