Fifth Third Bancorp started trading on the NYSE Friday, wrapping up its move from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. This is a notable exchange switch for a top U.S. regional bank. The NYSE said in a pre-market note that Fifth Third was expected to start trading June 12, calling it the biggest bank transfer the exchange has seen in 234 years.
Fifth Third’s common stock is still trading as FITB, and its preferred depositary shares are now listed as FITB PRA, FITB PRI, FITB PRK, and FITB PRM. The bank, based in Cincinnati, had earlier said both its common and preferred shares would trade on Nasdaq until markets closed June 11, with listing moving to the NYSE when trading starts June 12.
S&P Capital IQ confirmed through MarketScreener late Thursday that Fifth Third will switch its main listing to the NYSE from Nasdaq Global Select. The change is effective June 12. MarketScreener’s site showed FITB at $54.14 in a real-time Cboe BZX read just after 10 a.m. EDT, up 1.35% for the day.
Fifth Third Chairman, CEO and President Tim Spence said in the release, “We’re pleased to be listing on the New York Stock Exchange.” He said the bank wants to keep delivering value to shareholders over the long term. NYSE Group President Lynn Martin welcomed Fifth Third, calling it the “largest bank transfer in history.” Fifth Third Investor Relations
Investors will see a change at the exchange level, but not in the ticker for the common stock. According to the company’s SEC filing, both the common stock and depositary shares are cleared for NYSE listing and will switch to new NYSE symbols after Nasdaq trading wraps up June 11.
Fifth Third’s relisting follows its completed merger with Comerica. The bank finished the deal in February, making it the ninth-largest U.S. bank, with assets of around $294 billion.
Fifth Third shares climbed into the transfer date, ending Thursday at $53.42, up 1.46%. Still, the stock stayed under its 52-week high of $55.44 from February 11, MarketWatch reported. The bank set its second-quarter common dividend at $0.40 a share, to be paid July 15 for shareholders on record June 30.
