"Extending Louis's tenure provides the Board with appropriate flexibility to complete a thorough search and appoint the best possible leader for Regal Rexnord, while ensuring continuity for our customers, associates, and shareholders."

Pinkham stated that he agreed to extend his service at the board's request to support a smooth transition. "In the meantime, our team remains intensely focused on execution, energized by our growth strategies, and committed to delivering another solid year," he said.
