Amit is a world-class executive with a proven track record across both financial and operational roles and the ideal person to further support our efforts to work differently and move faster and lead our Finance and Strategy organizations into the future.”

“I am excited to join Kenvue with its global scale and portfolio of iconic consumer health brands,” Mr. Banati said. “My focus as CFO will be supporting revenue growth through stronger data management and resource allocation, driving continued margin and cost profile improvement efforts, strengthening cash flow, and fostering greater agility, including better integrated business planning and improved financial forecasting. With the talented Kenvuers around the world, we can maximize benefits of the Company’s increased brand investments and accelerate growth across Self Care, Skin Health and Beauty, and Essential Health to create sustainable value for shareholders.”
