Shares of DocuSign Inc. gained 0.7% in premarket trading Tuesday, after the digital signature company said Chief Executive Dan Springer as agreed to “step aside” after about 5 1/2 years in the role. The company said it named Chairman Maggie Wilderotter as interim CEO, effective immediately. The company said it has retained an executive search firm to help with the search for a new CEO. The stock, once a post-pandemic darling amid the expansion of the at-home economy, the stock has lost more than half its value this year as the outlook for projected billings dropped. The stock had sunk 60.3% year to date through Friday, while the S&P 500 has declined 22.9%.
