US Steel names Kevin Lewis as CFO
In a significant shift for U.S. Steel, the company has unveiled new leadership in the wake of its acquisition by Nippon Steel. Kevin Lewis steps in as the new CFO, taking over from Jessica Graziano, who will continue to lend her expertise as a special advisor throughout the transition period.
US Steel said on Tuesday Kevin Lewis would replace CFO Jessica Graziano effective immediately, days after the steelmaker closed its sale to Japan's Nippon Steel.
Graziano, who has spent nearly three years at the company, would stay on as a special advisor until July 18 to aid with the transition, US Steel said.
Lewis who joined the Pittsburgh-based steelmaker 17 years ago, has held key positions across finance, strategy and investor relations.
The company also appointed Scot Duncan as senior vice president, general counsel and secretary, effective immediately.
The move comes after Nippon Steel completed its $14.9-billion acquisition of US Steel last week, marking the end to an 18-month regulatory battle.
