LastPass has a new CEO

TECHNOLOGY

The private equity owners of the LastPass password management business have found a chief executive to lead the firm amid its separation from Boston software firm GoTo, formerly LogMeIn, and afterward. On Tuesday, Francisco Partners and Evergreen Coast Capital announced they have hired Karim Toubba to be the new CEO of LastPass, overseeing a team of 545 employees. He succeeds GoTo chief executive Mike Kohlsdorf, who had been leading LastPass on an interim basis. Toubba most recently was chief executive of Kenna Security, which was acquired by Cisco last year. While Toubba is based in San Francisco, a spokesperson said LastPass will continue to be headquartered in Boston. The ownership and shareholder board members remain the same for both GoTo and LastPass today, but the board makeups eventually will differ as the firms’ owners add independent directors who are relevant to each of the two businesses. At the time the LastPass spinoff was announced in late 2021, it had about $200 million in annual recurring revenue. — JON CHESTO

Raytheon cuts 2022 sales forecast, citing Russian pullout

Aerospace and defense giant Raytheon Technologies Corp. cut its 2022 sales forecast, citing the impact of global sanctions on Russia following its invasion of Ukraine. Revenue this year will be $67.75 billion to $68.75 billion, down $750 million from the prior range, the company said Tuesday in a statement. Analysts had expected $69.1 billion, according to the average of estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Waltham-based Raytheon reaffirmed its profit and cash-flow forecasts. The revised outlook highlights the impact of the commercial aerospace industry’s broad withdrawal from Russia following its invasion of Ukraine and the sweeping sanctions imposed by the United States and its European allies. Raytheon halted the Russia sales and support services at its Pratt & Whitney jet engine unit and Collins Aerospace aircraft components business in early March. — BLOOMBERG NEWS

Delta to pay flight attendants during boarding

Delta Air Lines, which has narrowly fought off several attempts to unionize its flight attendants, will begin paying cabin crews during boarding, a first for a major US airline and a change that is expected to increase their wages by several thousand dollars a year. It is a notable change for US airlines, where pay for flight attendants starts when all the passengers are seated and the plane’s doors close. Delta said the change will start June 2 on all flights. — ASSOCIATED PRESS

United to offer more overseas flights this summer

United Airlines plans to offer more flights across the Atlantic this summer than it did in 2019, a wager that international travel will bounce back strongly despite the persistent pandemic. United said Tuesday that it will boost transatlantic passenger-carrying capacity by 25 percent over pre-pandemic levels to a combination of new destinations and old favorites such as London. Later this week, United will begin serving several new destinations that it named last fall, including Portugal’s Azores and Spain’s Canary Islands. The company is also adding flights — for example, jumping to 22 daily flights from the United States to London in late May. — ASSOCIATED PRESS

Chase sued over cyberattack

J.P. Morgan Chase Bank N.A. was sued by a unit of the French maker of Ray-Ban glasses, which claims the bank ignored red flags as international cybercriminals drained $272 million from its New York bank account.

Red flags included a jump in monthly dollar volume from $15 million to more than $100 million and money being moved to shell companies at regional banks, often in high-risk jurisdictions, EMTC said in the complaint filed Monday in federal court in Manhattan. — BLOOMBERG NEWS
