Ms. Findlay’s extensive digital marketing and consumer insights

organization. Ms. Coles’ extensive experience with content in TV,
digital and print and her unparalleled understanding of consumer
audiences will be beneficial as Sonos continues to evolve its
industry-leading consumer experience and differentiate its

“Deirdre and Joanna will add tremendous expertise and breadth of
knowledge to the Sonos Board. I am confident they will make a
positive impact and contribute to the company’s continued

“Sonos is one of the leading sound experience brands globally
and I am thrilled to work with the Board on the many opportunities
that lie ahead,” Deirdre Findlay said.

what animals can hear that we can’t, what secret frequencies they
tune into that we can’t. Sonos unlocks a secret world of sound.
Listening to a song or a movie with Sonos is a completely different
experience because you just get more of it. More depth, more
layers, more feeling - giving you that experience of hearing more
and the world of sound opening up.”
