On August 1, 2025, AT&T officially began trading its shares on NYSE Texas under the ticker symbol “T,” while retaining its primary listing on the New York Stock Exchange. The move makes AT&T one of the early high-profile companies to dual‑list on the newly launched Dallas-based electronic exchange, which opened in March 2025.
Company officials highlighted the significance of the move, pointing out AT&T’s deep roots in Texas. Chief Executive John Stankey referenced AT&T’s longstanding relationship with the New York Stock Exchange—dating back to September 4, 1901—and emphasized the strategic resonance of joining NYSE Texas, given that the company’s global headquarters is based in North Texas. He called the dual listing “a founding member” step that reinforces AT&T’s loyalty to the state and deepens its presence in the region.
AT&T’s dual listing marks a milestone for NYSE Texas, which has already attracted several major corporations since its launch. Among them are oilfield services firm Halliburton and Trump Media & Technology Group, which listed as founding members earlier this year.
Financial analysts view the listing as a validation of NYSE Texas’s potential as a credible alternative trading venue for large, blue-chip companies. NYSE Group President Lynn Martin described AT&T’s inclusion as a key step in strengthening the Texas exchange’s community and underscored the ongoing interest among NYSE-listed firms to pursue dual listings.
The broader economic context underscores the move’s relevance. Texas’s economy has earned its 13th consecutive Governor’s Cup award for leading the nation in job-creating corporate relocations and expansions in 2024. Analysts expect continued momentum through 2025 and beyond, suggesting a climate increasingly favorable to financial innovation and regional capital markets growth.
By listing on NYSE Texas, AT&T not only strengthens its local linkage but also helps elevate Dallas’s profile as a rising hub for equity trading. Market watchers anticipate further dual‑listing announcements in the coming months, potentially solidifying Dallas as a major center for both corporate listings and trading liquidity.
The combined impact of AT&T’s listing and NYSE Texas’s early traction signals a potential shift in the U.S. equities landscape—one in which regional financial centers play a growing role alongside traditional exchanges.
