Bark said its chief executive has voluntarily withdrawn from Great Dane Ventures, a group planning to submit a proposal to take over the company.
The dog product brand said Tuesday that CEO Matt Meeker will continue to hold his role. Meeker withdrew as a member and equity holder in the group after talks with a special committee of Bark's board.
The special committee plans to review any proposals to acquire Bark and will evaluate its standalone value with the help of external financial and legal advisers, the company said.
