GameStop CFO Catherine Smith resigns, joins Walmart International

Still-nascent GameStop CFO Catherine Smith, enticed by a retail giant that makes the games business look like small change, has resigned. The company this morning issued a press release stating that, effective immediately, Robert Lloyd has been named CFO and senior vice president in Smith's stead.

Brown is said to have become a person of Walmart International, but even with her gone, CEO Daniel DeMatteo remains confident in the current "strong executive team" in place, also noting that her replacement, Robert Lloyd, has been a part of GameStop for 14 years now. "He has been instrumental in guiding the company through its tremendous growth and success." We might argue that the company hasn't seen too many lean years in its lifetime, but let's not bother with that right now. It's your special day, Mr. Lloyd. Live it up.
