Williams CEO Alan Armstrong to step down after 14 years at the helm
Armstrong, who joined Williams nearly 40 years ago, would be succeeded by insider Chad Zamarin, effective July 1. Zamarin, who joined the company in 2017, is currently the executive vice president of corporate strategic development. Williams on Monday also beat quarterly earnings estimates and raised its annual profit forecast, as it banked on rising demand for natural gas, driven by a surge in electricity consumption by homes, businesses, crypto-mining, and an artificial intelligence-led boom in data centers.
