GoPro profit forecast may miss expectations, COO resigns

Action camera maker GoPro Inc forecast a current-quarter profit that could miss Wall Street expectations and said its chief operating officer was resigning, sending its shares down nearly 18 percent after the bell. Nina Richardson, chief operating officer for the last two years, will leave the company effective Feb. 27, GoPro said in a regulatory filing. Analysts were expecting a profit of 17 cents per share on revenue of $324.7 million (212 million pounds), according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
