hold

The resignation of the CFO is a notable event, but the company explicitly stated it was not due to disagreements regarding operations, policies, or practices. The company has a clear plan for an interim period and a search for a successor. This suggests stability in core operations despite the executive change, warranting a 'hold' recommendation as there's no immediate fundamental shift to warrant a buy or sell, but the transition should be monitored.
