John E. O'Malley has resigned as the president and chief executive of Harland Financial Solutions Inc., the banking technology unit of the check printer Harland Clarke Holdings Corp.
The Lake Mary, Fla., unit said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission this month that Mr. O'Malley left April 15 "to pursue other interests."
Sam Kilmer, Harland Financial's vice president of market development, said in an interview Friday that it does not plan to hire a successor, and that Mr. O'Malley's leadership duties will be shared by the heads of its two main business lines: J.R. Clemons, the president of its compliance and risk management solutions business, and Raju M. Shivdasani, the president of its enterprise solutions group.
Mr. Kilmer would not say why Mr. O'Malley resigned.
Harland Clarke was formed last year when the New York holding company M&F Worldwide Corp. acquired John H. Harland Co. of Atlanta, then the No. 2 check printer, and merged it with the No. 3 printer, Clarke American Corp. of San Antonio, which M&F had purchased in 2005.
