March 25 (Reuters) - Swiss sportswear brand On Holding
said on Wednesday its co-founders David Allemann and
Caspar Coppetti will take over as co-CEOs from May 1, replacing
Martin Hoffmann.
Hoffmann became On Holding's ( ONON ) sole CEO in April 2025 after he
led the company through its initial public offering filed in
2021 with then co-CEO Marc Maurer.
Hoffmann, who was also On Holding's ( ONON ) CFO for 13 years, will
remain on board as an adviser through March 2027, the company
said in a statement.
On Holding ( ONON ) named Frank Sluis as CFO in January. Sluis is
expected to take on the role from May 1.
Earlier this month, On Holding ( ONON ) forecast muted annual sales
growth, causing its shares to tumble.
The company, like other footwear and apparel makers, is
tackling a shifting tariff landscape.
Hoffmann said in March that it could see a possible boost
from the lower tariff rates after the U.S. Supreme Court struck
down the government's emergency levies. On Holding ( ONON ) has filed for
tariff refunds, and said it would reinvest proceeds in the
business rather than pass it on to consumers.
The firm's U.S.-listed shares fell about 15% in 2025, and
are down about 14% so far this year.
