TYSONS CORNER, Va. and PETAH TIKVA, Israel, July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cellebrite (NASDAQ: CLBT), a global leader in premier Digital Investigative solutions for the public and private sectors, today announced that David Barter, a proven finance executive with extensive public company CFO experience in technology and software, has been appointed CFO, effective immediately. He succeeds Dana Gerner, who has served as Cellebrite’s CFO since 2014. Gerner will remain in an active advisory role to support the transition until the Company reports its second-quarter 2025 financial results. As CFO, Barter is responsible for the Company’s financial operations, including financial planning, accounting, reporting and treasury, as well as corporate development, investor relations and operations. He reports directly to CEO Thomas E. Hogan.

“On behalf of the full board, our employees, and our shareholders, I want to thank Dana Gerner for her dedication, professionalism, passion and performance. For the past eleven years, Gerner led a high-caliber finance and operations organization and played a key role in building Cellebrite into a market-leading public company, delivering consistently strong top-line growth, profitability and cash generation,” stated Hogan. “The Company owes Dana an enormous debt of gratitude and wishes her every success as she embarks on a new and exciting chapter in her life.”

Hogan continued, “We are thrilled to welcome Dave to Cellebrite. Dana set a high bar for her successor. We sought a leader with proven experience as a public company software CFO focused on growth and operations at scale, exceptional leadership skills, strong communication acumen and US-based with a track record of leading and operating globally.”

“It has been a great privilege to be part of Cellebrite’s journey. We have accomplished a lot over the past 11 years, and the company has a bright future. I have no doubt that the team, under Dave’s leadership, will continue to positively contribute to Cellebrite’s success,” said Dana Gerner.

Barter brings more than three decades of public company financial leadership experience. For the last 20 years, he has been focused on scaling global software companies. Prior to joining Cellebrite, he served as CFO at New Relic where he played an instrumental role in driving the company’s growth to nearly $1 billion in annual revenue, transitioning the company to a consumption-based model, improving profitability and cash flow and supporting a successful $6.5 billion sale of the business. Barter previously served as CFO at C3.ai and Model N as well as held senior finance positions at Guidewire Software, Microsoft and General Electric.

“I could not be more excited to join Cellebrite,” stated David Barter. “The Company’s unique and compelling mission and focus on public safety captured my interest and fuels my ongoing enthusiasm about joining Cellebrite. Every day, Cellebrite’s technology makes a tangible difference in helping thousands of customers around the globe elevate their operational intelligence and accelerate their investigations in ways that make our world safer. I look forward to working with Cellebrite’s leadership team as well as my new colleagues to effectively and efficiently expand our business around the world and deliver on our commitments to our customers, communities, employees and shareholders.”
