Atlantic Tele-Network is Now ATN International
BEVERLY, MA, June 21, 2016 — ATN (NASDAQ:ATNI) today announced it has changed the company name to ATN International, reflecting its increasingly diversified business, both in terms of geographic reach and expansion into renewable energy services. As part of the name change, the company also unveiled a new logo.
“Our business has expanded into new markets and services over the years, and it was clear that our name also needed to be more expansive,” said ATN Chief Executive Officer, Michael Prior. “With distinct lines of business in communications and renewable energy, a continual and ever changing deployment of advanced technologies and services into multiple markets by ATN International, this was a small change that we felt was more reflective of our current breadth of businesses and more adaptable to change in the future.”
ATN International’s communications business includes a network of subsidiary companies that provide advanced services, including fixed and wireless voice, data, and video, to under-served markets in the U.S. and throughout Bermuda and the Caribbean. ATN International’s renewables business includes distributed generation solar power systems in a number of U.S. states and in India.
