Snowflake Inc. (NYSE:SNOW) dropped its share prices by 11.89 percent on Thursday to close at $156.22 apiece following news that its chief revenue officer Chris Degnan, who was integral in taking the company to a $3.4-billion revenue firm, is stepping down from his post to pursue retirement.

Degnan will be replaced by Mike Gannon effective March 14, 2025.

Gannon is set to join SNOW from VMware by Broadcom, where he most recently served as President of America Sales.

Prior to VMware, he also held sales leadership roles at EMC Corporation and Isilon Systems, where he played a key role in building and expanding sales operations, driving market adoption, and strengthening customer engagement. Gannon holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Oswego State University.
