Under Armour Inc. Chief Financial Officer Brad Dickerson, who said earlier this week that he was leaving the performance athletic apparel company, will join privately-held fresh ingredient and recipe delivery service Blue Apron in early 2016. Under Armour’s stock fell 2% on Wednesday after the company said Dickerson was leaving to pursue another opportunity outside the athletic performance industry, and then dropped 4% on Thursday, before bouncing 1.6% on Friday. “Blue Apron is now shipping five million meals per month to customers across the country, up from one million meals per month less than a year ago,” said Blue Apron Chief Executive Matt Salzberg. “Brad brings deep experience in scaling fast-growing iconic brands, and we expect his leadership will be an invaluable asset to the company as we continue to grow at a rapid pace.”
