MANITOWOC -
First Manitowoc Bancorp Inc., the parent company of Bank First
National, on Thursday announced the company’s stock ticker
symbol change.
Effective Wednesday, according to
a company statement, the company’s common shares will start
trading on the OTC markets under the trading symbol BFNC. The
previous trading symbol was FMWC.
"This change will better align the Bank First brand and name
with the ticker symbol. We have discovered that customers and
potential shareholders have had difficulty making the connection
with our previous ticker symbol," said Mike Molepske, president
and CEO at Bank First. "Furthermore, the holding company will
seek shareholder approval in early 2014 to change the holding
company name to also better align with the Bank First brand and
name."
