Controller Alison Hall to serve as interim replacement
Thomas Song has resigned from the position of chief financial officer of Dine Brands Global Inc., effective Jan. 22, 2021, the company said in a filing with the Securities & Exchange Commission.
His interim replacement will be Alison Hall, who has been the company’s vice president and corporate controller since March of 2019, the filing said, adding that she started with the company in 2007 as assistant controller.
Glendale, Calif.-based Dine Brands is the parent company of family-dining chain IHOP and casual-dining chain Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill & Bar.
In an email, the chairman of Dine Brands’ board of directors, Richard Dahl, said Song was leaving to “take an opportunity outside of the restaurant industry.”
