Edison International (EIX) General Counsel to step down

In a recent 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Edison International (NYSE: EIX) disclosed the upcoming retirement of Adam S. Umanoff, the company's Executive Vice President, General Counsel, and Corporate Secretary. Umanoff will step down from his role effective July 4, 2025. The company’s Board of Directors has elected Chonda J. Nwamu as the new Executive Vice President and General Counsel, with her term beginning April 9, 2025.

Umanoff's departure comes after a substantial tenure with Edison International, a company operating primarily in the electric services industry with $17.3 billion in revenue over the last twelve months. During the interim period, starting from April 9 until his retirement, Umanoff will continue serving as Executive Vice President.

The announcement was made public on Monday, following the formal notice given by Umanoff on Thursday last week. The transition plan appears to be well-structured, with Nwamu stepping into her new role a few months before Umanoff’s retirement, ensuring a smooth handover of responsibilities.
