FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Celestica Announces New Leadership Structure
to Support Unprecedented Growth
Mandeep Chawla named to newly created role
of Group President, Global Markets;

Officer
TORONTO, Sept. 11, 2026
– Celestica Inc. (NYSE, TSX: CLS),
a global leader in data center infrastructure and advanced technology solutions, today announced executive leadership appointments to
align with the company’s strong growth trajectory and position the business for sustainable, multi-year growth. Effective October 1,
2026, Mandeep Chawla will assume the newly created role of Group President, Global Markets, and Todd Ankenmann will succeed him as Chief
Financial Officer (CFO).
In the new role of Group President, Global Markets, Chawla will oversee
the company's overarching commercial execution and global market expansion. This structure is designed to drive operational velocity,
scale the business effectively and capture accelerating demand across Celestica’s end markets.

role in driving the company's financial health, strategic transformation, and long-term performance. Prior to joining Celestica in 2010,
Chawla spent nearly a decade at General Electric (GE), followed by senior leadership roles across the engineering and life sciences sectors.
“Celestica is experiencing unprecedented growth, and as we look
to the future, we are evolving our leadership structure to ensure we can scale effectively and continue delivering exceptional value to
our customers and shareholders,” said Rob Mionis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Celestica. "Mandeep has been an outstanding
CFO and a core contributor to our strategic vision. His deep understanding of our business, combined with his exceptional commercial acumen,
makes him the ideal leader to step into this crucial new role to drive our next chapter of growth.”
Succeeding Chawla as CFO is Todd Ankenmann, who brings a wealth of
institutional knowledge and financial expertise to the executive team. Ankenmann joined Celestica in 2018 and currently serves as Senior
Vice President, Finance, where he plays a pivotal role in strategic planning, financial reporting, and commercial execution. Before joining
Celestica, Ankenmann spent over a decade in senior finance leadership roles at GE.
“With his deep understanding of our business model, rigorous
financial management, and proven track record across our ATS and CCS businesses, Todd is uniquely positioned for a seamless transition
to Chief Financial Officer," said Mionis. “Together, these appointments optimize our executive team to deliver on our long-term
growth objectives."
