Oringer returns to executive leadership

Oringer founded Shutterstock in 2003 and served as CEO until 2020. In his renewed role, he will focus on long-term strategy, strategic investments and future opportunities, while continuing as chairman of the board.

Assi, who had led Envato since 2020, will take responsibility for day-to-day operations, execution and the company's transformation. The board thanked Rik Powell, who had served as interim CEO since July 2026.

Earnings update changes investor focus

Shutterstock said it will not hold the third-quarter 2026 earnings conference call that had been scheduled for November 5. The company plans to report its third-quarter financial results under applicable reporting requirements while it evaluates its strategic direction and priorities.

The leadership change puts execution and the strategic review at the center of the near-term investor debate. The next formal company update should clarify how management intends to address the changing creative and generative-AI markets.
