HP Inc. announced that Bruce Broussard, a member of the company’s Board of Directors since 2021, has been appointed Interim Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. He succeeds Enrique Lores, who has stepped down as President and CEO and as a member of the Board to pursue another professional opportunity. 

The Board has formed a CEO Search Committee to identify the company’s next CEO and has retained a leading global executive search firm to assist with the process.

“This is an important time in HP’s history as the company advances its plan to lead the Future of Work,” said Chip Bergh, Chairman of the Board. “We are confident that Bruce will successfully drive the company’s initiatives forward, working closely with HP’s strong leadership team. Since joining the Board, Bruce has been a valued contributor, steadfastly focused on shareholder value creation.”

As Interim CEO, Broussard will advance the company’s strategic priorities by leveraging his proven operational, financial, and business management expertise and his knowledge of HP’s business. Broussard is a seasoned executive with over 30 years of leadership experience at public companies. 

He most recently served as President and CEO of Humana Inc., a leading healthcare company, for more than a decade. Before that, Broussard served in multiple capacities during his 11-year tenure at US Oncology, including CFO, CEO, and Chairman of the Board. Upon the sale to McKesson, he became the President of the Specialty Pharmacy Division.

Broussard commented, “HP is shaping the next era of technology with a relentless commitment to empowering people and businesses to thrive, and I am honored to serve as Interim CEO. This proven team’s dedication to operational excellence has created significant momentum across the business amidst a complex environment… As we begin fiscal 2026, we will continue to drive our One HP platform to deliver technology that promotes growth and professional fulfillment for our customers and sustained value creation for our shareholders.”

The company also reaffirmed its financial outlook for the first quarter and full fiscal year 2026 as provided on November 25, 2025.
