SKILLS
ABOUT MATTHEW DE LUNA
SENIOR FINANCE EXECUTIVE: CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER (CFO)I am an accomplished Senior Finance Executive with a common theme running through my career: I position businesses for profitable, sustainable operations. Known as a turnaround specialist, I have led organizations through major transactions – M&A, capital raising, public offering, and bankruptcy proceedings.My excellent business sense and financial judgment are not bound to one market segment, but rather span diverse industries, such as healthcare and life sciences, technology, real estate, energy, manufacturing, and distribution. The strategies, processes, and best practices I introduce are industry agnostic and work well to reduce cost, create visibility, and achieve business goals across all sectors.As a leader, I empower teams and collaborate across functional leaders in large, global environments to optimize financial performance, accountability, and compliance enterprise-wide.In my first three months at a clinical stage imaging company, I created audit-ready financials and in the first 10 months, raised more than $10M in capital.At The New Home Company, I facilitated a successful $47M public offering by ensuring the company complied with SEC / SOX reporting requirements.I took a Fortune 500 energy company, Edison Mission Energy (EME), through Chapter 11 bankruptcy to emerge through a $2.6B asset sale.I orchestrated the seamless transition and financial integration of EME’s $2.6B in assets to new ownership by NRG Energy.Earlier in my career, I transformed a $90M Motorola subsidiary from loss to 6% margin growth, leading to the migration of a $45M division to Motorola’s Chicago headquarters.Additionally, I have public accounting experience as Audit Senior for several SEC-reporting companies that were former Big 4 clients.
