As a member of our Board, she has intimate knowledge of our business and strategy. With her digital media experience, CEO-level success, and Board perspective, we are confident Anjali will hit the ground running and build on our momentum as we continue to execute against our objectives. We believe she will be an outstanding CEO for SiriusXM.”

“I am honored to lead SiriusXM in its next chapter,” said Sud. “Premium audio experiences will be more important than ever to the future of entertainment, and I believe SiriusXM can evolve to lead that future. Since joining the Board, I have gained a deeper appreciation for the Company’s strengths and potential. I look forward to working with the team to execute with ambition and expand value for our subscribers, advertisers, artists, creators, talent, partners, and shareholders.”

Maffei also thanks Witz, who has been at Sirius for 25 years, as CEO for the past six. “Her efforts include expanding in-car penetration and 360L rollouts, solidifying its premium, content-led subscription business with record-high customer satisfaction and record-low churn, securing an exclusive advertising partnership with YouTube, and building one of the nation’s leading podcast networks … Jennifer is leaving SiriusXM with a strong foundation, and we are grateful for her leadership.”

Sud has served as Tubi CEO since 2023. Under her leadership, the business scaled to more than 110 million monthly active users, expanded globally, and established itself as a leading entertainment destination.
