Any change in the make-up of a company?s board can have an impact on a company?s stock price.

However, when either the Chairman or another board member is ousted, this can have a significant impact on the stock price.
As the role of the board is to endorse the strategy of the business, changes to the board can have an impact on the strategic direction of the company and therefore it?s future profitability.
