SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwired - Jan 12, 2016) - TiVo Inc. (NASDAQ: TIVO), a leader in the advanced television entertainment market, today announced that its board of directors has named Naveen Chopra, the companys chief financial officer, interim chief executive officer, effective January 30, 2016.

In addition, the board announced that Wendy Markus Webb, a highly-respected executive with more than 30 years of experience in treasury, investment banking, investor relations and capital markets, has joined the board and the boards audit committee effective Monday, January 11, 2016.
Chopra Named Interim CEO
Mr. Chopra has been with TiVo since 2003, serving most recently as its chief financial officer while also leading the companys corporate development and strategy initiatives. Before joining TiVo, Chopra held a variety of business development and product marketing roles at HP, Microsoft, Moxi Digital, Ispiri and Ofoto.
I look forward to continuing to work with my talented colleagues to grow value for our shareholders, said Mr. Chopra. Moving forward, we will be highly focused on product innovation, accelerating profitability, enhancing subscription growth, and securing new distribution agreements across an expanded geographic footprint -- in addition to safeguarding TiVos invaluable intellectual property.
Naveen is the perfect choice to serve as interim CEO, said Mr. Rogers. He and I have worked incredibly closely for the last 11 years, and he deserves tremendous credit for much of the progress TiVo has made in becoming the global leader in advanced television. I am enthusiastic about continuing to work with Naveen as we step into our new roles at TiVo.
Dan Moloney, lead independent director, added, Naveen is uniquely capable of ensuring a smooth and productive leadership transition at TiVo. Naveen has our full support as interim CEO to execute on all the initiatives that are important to creating value for our shareholders.
Wendy Webb Appointed to the Board
Ms. Webb is chief executive officer of Kestrel Corporate Advisors, an advisory services firm counseling corporate and non-profit organizations on strategic business issues. She currently serves as independent director of ABM Industries, PetSmart Charities, Inc. and 9 Spokes. Her past experience includes 20 years with The Walt Disney Company, where she held various executive positions and was responsible for Disneys strategic and financial communications worldwide, as well as various positions with Tennenbaum Capital Partners, Ticketmaster Entertainment, Inc., PaineWebber Inc. and Lehman Brothers.
Wendy is a valuable addition to TiVos board of directors as we advance TiVos position in the global market and continue our search for a permanent CEO, said Mr. Moloney. Her substantial management, financial, investor relations and board experience will be an asset in moving the company forward and generating value for shareholders.
