Dime Community Bancshares announced it will transfer all of its publicly traded securities to the New York Stock Exchange, with the move taking effect on April 07 2026. The company will voluntarily delist from NASDAQ at the close of business on April 06 2026. Under the new listing, common stock will trade under the ticker “DCOM,” preferred stock under “DCOM PR,” and fixed‑to‑floating rate subordinated notes due 2034 under “DCBG.”
The transfer aligns with Dime’s 161‑year heritage as a New York State‑chartered trust company and positions the bank alongside other major New York‑area banks. CEO Stuart H. Lubow highlighted the NYSE’s iconic status and its fit with Dime’s long‑standing New York banking heritage, underscoring the symbolic and strategic significance of the move.
The NYSE listing is part of a broader strategic shift that includes a planned rebranding to Dime Commercial Bancshares, Inc. and a change of the bank’s name to Dime Commercial Bank, pending shareholder approval on May 28 2026. The rebranding reflects the bank’s expanded commercial focus and aims to strengthen its market positioning and investor appeal.
Dime reported strong financial performance, with $15 billion in assets and the largest deposit market share on Greater Long Island. The NYSE listing is expected to enhance visibility among institutional investors and improve access to capital, supporting the bank’s growth strategy and reinforcing its competitive position in the region.
The transition is expected to streamline trading and broaden the investor base, providing a more robust platform for capital raising and shareholder engagement as the bank continues to evolve its business model.
