Turtle Beach Corporation (Nasdaq: HEAR), a leading gaming headset
and accessories brand, today announced that Chief Financial Officer
and Treasurer John Hanson, has informed the Company of his intent
to retire after an over 45-year career in leadership, operational,

high-performance accessories, including headsets,” stated Cris

privilege of collaborating with exceptional colleagues on globally
