Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On November 6, 2012, Financial Engines, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the promotion of Lawrence (“Larry”) M. Raffone, the Company’s Executive Vice President of Distribution and Institutional Services, to President effective November 7, 2012. Mr. Raffone is currently expected to continue to receive his compensation as described in the Company’s proxy statement filed in connection with the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Proxy Statement”). We expect that any equity awards which may be approved in connection with his new position will be generally consistent with the Company’s annual grant process for executive compensation as disclosed in the Proxy Statement. Jeffrey N. Maggioncalda, our Chief Executive Officer and President, will continue to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer although he will no longer hold the title of President effective November 7, 2012.

The full text of the Company’s press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
