Cooper Companies CEO Albert White resigns; Board appoints STERIS veteran Walter Rosebrough as Executive Chair pending permanent CEO search.

Albert White's departure as President and CEO of Cooper Companies marks a significant leadership transition driven by board-assessed performance shortfalls. Walter Rosebrough, CEO Emeritus of STERIS with 40 years of medical device experience, assumes interim Executive Chair with day-to-day operational oversight while Russell Reynolds conducts a permanent CEO search. The Board is simultaneously refreshing its composition—adding Johnson & Johnson veteran Shlomo Nachman and reducing board size to seven members—signaling structural governance reform alongside leadership change.
