ImmuCell Corp (NASDAQ:ICCC), a diagnostics company with a market capitalization of $44.29 million and impressive revenue growth of 46.37% over the last twelve months, disclosed a significant executive transition in a recent SEC filing. Elizabeth L. Williams, the Vice President of Manufacturing Operations since April 2016, will move to a part-time role leading up to her retirement on July 1, 2025.

According to the Employment and Separation Agreement dated December 6, 2024, Williams will assist in transitioning her responsibilities until her retirement. This new agreement supersedes all prior arrangements, including a Fifth Amended and Restated Incentive Compensation Agreement from March 27, 2024. The company maintains strong financial health, with InvestingPro data showing liquid assets exceeding short-term obligations with a current ratio of 3.11.

Should Williams fulfill her part-time obligations and adhere to the agreement's terms through June 30, 2025, she will receive a one-time payment of $100,000, offset by her earned wages during this period.

The company's recent filing also noted that this executive change is part of a broader material definitive agreement, but specifics of this larger agreement were not disclosed.
