Nvidia’s chief financial officer, Colette Kress, will serve as interim CEO while the board searches for a permanent replacement.

The New York Times reported that U.S. intelligence officials suspect a businesswoman who had a relationship with Huang was providing information to China. Beijing denies the allegations.

The Times also reported that Huang had a separate affair with an Nvidia executive who reported to him.

Nvidia’s board has opened an independent investigation and says it has no reason to believe national security or company secrets were compromised.
