Date: 7 May 2026 Planned CEO Succession Ensures Seamless Transition and Continued Legacy of Innovation, Growth and Success Pella Corporation proudly announces Emily Videtto as its next President and Chief Executive Officer, effective July 1, 2026. Videtto will assume the CEO duties currently held by Tim Yaggi upon his planned retirement. Her appointment reflects a deliberate and well-planned succession process led by the company's Board of Directors. "On behalf of the board and shareholder family, I want to thank Tim for leading Pella through an extraordinary decade of growth, transformation, and long-term value creation," said Adam Farver, Chairman of the Board, Pella Corporation.

Emily is a visionary leader who has been central to shaping Pella's growth strategy and operating model. She brings deep knowledge of the business and industry, proven results, and an unwavering commitment to Pella's customers, culture and people." "Pella's last decade has been an incredible chapter of transformation. From the Board's perspective, Tim is leaving Pella as a fundamentally stronger company - operationally, culturally, and strategically," said John F. Lundgren, Lead Director of the Board. "Emily has been instrumental to this success and is well-prepared to step into the CEO role and lead Pella forward with continuity, discipline, and long-term focus." A proven leader within the organization, Videtto brings nearly a decade of progressive strategic leadership and success at Pella, most recently serving as President and Chief Operating Officer. She played a pivotal role in revitalizing the brand, driving innovation, delivering industry-leading quality and reliable delivery, and amassing a differentiated portfolio of brands.

Emily earned her undergrad from Indiana University and completed Harvard Business School's Program for Leadership Development, later earning alumni status through Harvard's Authentic Leadership Development program. "I am honored to lead a company I've grown with and deeply believe in," Videtto said."Our success is grounded in an ambitious growth strategy and a culture of bold caring, and I'm committed to carrying that forward while championing our broader purpose of providing great careers for our team members, exceptional experiences and innovative solutions for our customers and continued investment in the communities Pella serves." This leadership transition reflects a thoughtful, multi-year plan designed to ensure continuity and position the company for sustained success. Yaggi will retire after leading the company through a period of significant growth and value creation. "After 10 years, I'm incredibly proud of what we've built and the team across our family of brands who made it possible.Emily has been a trusted partner and driving force behind our growth and operations. Her deep expertise, proven enterprise leadership and exceptional character, make her uniquely prepared to build on the momentum of the past decade and lead Pella confidently into the future," said Yaggi. Under Yaggi's guidance, Pella significantly strengthened its market leadership and financial performance - culminating in 2.5X revenue growth and 4X profitability improvement.
