YRC Changes Ticker Symbol for Month

YRC Worldwide said Friday its ticker symbol has temporarily changed to ”YRCWD,” from “YRCW,” a standard practice in conjunction with its reverse stock split.

The less-than-truckload carrier said its ticker symbol will revert back to YRCW on Oct. 28.

YRC announced the reverse split earlier this week, in conjunction with a tentative labor agreement reached with the Teamsters union. (Click here for previous coverage.)

YRC is ranked No. 4 on the Transport Topics 100 listing of U.S. and Canadian for-hire carriers.
