Terry Semel is stepping down as Yahoo&#39;s non-executive chairman, six months after handing over his CEO title to Jerry Yang.Semel is leaving the board effective immediately, Yahoo announced Thursday. He will be replaced as non-executive chairman by another board member, Roy Bostock, the company said.Semel was chairman and CEO of Yahoo for six years until he was replaced in a management shuffle last June. Yang, one of Yahoo&#39;s co-founders, was made CEO, and Semel was demoted to non-executive chairman.As CEO, Semel helped to build Yahoo&#39;s audience from 170 million to more than 500 million users. But he was also blamed for missteps that allowed Google to build a commanding lead in online search and advertising, prompting last year&#39;s reorganization.&quot;With the Company moving forward under new leadership, I believe this is an appropriate time for me to step down from the board,&quot; Semel said in the statement.He approached the board several months ago about leaving once a replacement could be found, Yahoo said.Bostock has a long history in the advertising industry, &quot;an area that is more important than ever to Yahoo&#39;s business and our long term success,&quot; the company said.On Tuesday&#160;Yahoo reported that net income for its fourth quarter declined&#160;to $206 million, from $269 million a year earlier. It also announced plans to lay off about 1,000 staff.Semel&#39;s departure from the board appears to mark the end of his tenure at Yahoo. Yang thanked him for &quot;his many contributions to Yahoo over the years&#160;-- and for helping to lay a firm foundation for future success and improved financial performance.&#8221;Bostock has been a board member at Yahoo since May 2003 and was elected unanimously by the board to replace Semel. From 1990 to 2000 he was chairman and CEO of D&#39;Arcy Masius Benton &amp; Bowles, and its successor advertising company The MacManus Group.
