EOG Resources names Jeff Hibbard CFO as Ann Janssen plans retirement

EOG Resources, Inc. (NYSE: EOG) said Ann D. Janssen informed the board on Sept. 23, 2026, that she will retire, according to a Form 8-K filed Sept. 24. Her last day as executive vice president and chief financial officer and principal financial officer will be Dec. 31, 2026. Beginning Jan. 1, 2027, she will remain employed as an advisor.

The board appointed Jeffrey W. Hibbard, 44, as executive vice president and chief financial officer and principal financial officer, effective Jan. 1, 2027. Hibbard has been senior vice president, finance since joining EOG in August 2025. Before that, he worked more than 20 years at Morgan Stanley, most recently as a managing director in the Global Energy Group.

Janssen joined a predecessor of EOG in 1995. She has served as EVP and CFO since January 2024 and previously was senior vice president and chief accounting officer from February 2018 through December 2023.

In a Sept. 24 press release filed as Exhibit 99.1, Chairman and CEO Ezra Y. Yacob said Janssen “championed the flexibility, value, and competitive advantage provided by a pristine balance sheet.” On Hibbard, Yacob said his “deep understanding of the business, developed over two decades serving the oil and gas industry, combined with the same commitment to capital discipline that Ann instilled, makes him the right choice to guide EOG’s financial strategy.”

Separately, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee on Sept. 22 amended the vesting schedule for future restricted stock and RSU grants to ratable vesting over three years (one-third per year), replacing the prior three-year cliff. The change applies beginning with grants effective Sept. 25, 2026.
