North American Builder Partner Amrize Begins Trading on SIX with CHF 46 Share Price

(IN BRIEF) Amrize Ltd began trading today on the SIX Swiss Exchange at CHF 46.00 per share, valuing the company at roughly CHF 26 billion, following its 100% spin-off from Holcim via a dividend-in-kind distribution. Shares trade under “AMRZ” in Zurich and will list on the NYSE later today. The separation, approved by Holcim shareholders in May, enables Amrize to focus on its North American building solutions business from Chicago (operational HQ) and Zug (registered office). With 1,000+ locations and 19,000 employees, Amrize serves all U.S. states and Canadian provinces across infrastructure, commercial, and residential sectors. The company was temporarily added to the SMI and SLI until September’s index review. CEO Jan Jenisch emphasized leveraging megatrends—like infrastructure modernization and housing demand—for profitable growth, while SIX’s Tomas Kindler welcomed Amrize as a reflection of Switzerland’s global capital market stature.

(PRESS RELEASE) ZURICH, 23-Jun-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — Amrize Ltd (“AMRZ”) celebrated its inaugural trading session on the SIX Swiss Exchange today, marking its emergence as a standalone, publicly listed North American leader in building solutions following a full spin-off from Holcim. Opening at CHF 46.00 per share, Amrize’s market capitalization reached approximately CHF 26 billion.

Trading under the ticker “AMRZ” commenced shortly after the 09:00 a.m. CEST market open in Zurich; the shares will also begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange later today. The spin-off was executed via a dividend-in-kind, distributing one Amrize share for each Holcim share held as of the close on 20 June 2025—a transaction ratified by Holcim shareholders at the 14 May 2025 Annual General Meeting.

On its debut, Amrize was included in both the Swiss Market Index (SMI) and the Swiss Leader Index (SLI) until the next annual index review on 19 September 2025. During this interim, and following precedent in similar spin-offs, the SMI and SLI will temporarily feature 21 and 31 constituents, respectively, with Holcim maintaining its position under the ticker “HOLN.”

Amrize positions itself as North America’s premier partner for professional builders, offering end-to-end branded solutions from foundation through rooftop. With over 1,000 locations and a robust distribution network, the company serves every U.S. state and Canadian province. Its workforce of 19,000 supports diverse construction sectors—including infrastructure, commercial, residential, new build, repair, and refurbishment—from its operational headquarters in Chicago and registered office in Zug, Switzerland.

Jan Jenisch, Amrize’s Chairman and CEO, stated, “Today is a milestone for our teammates as we launch Amrize’s independent journey. We will leverage North America’s booming construction market—driven by infrastructure upgrades, reshoring, data center growth, and housing needs—to deliver profitable expansion. Our proven track record, operational excellence, and comprehensive product range uniquely position us to be the partner of choice for professional builders and to generate value for all stakeholders.”

Tomas Kindler, Head of Exchanges and Executive Board Member at SIX, added, “We’re pleased to welcome Amrize to SIX Swiss Exchange. Their dual listing underscores Switzerland’s role as a global capital market hub and highlights our appeal to internationally minded companies. We congratulate Amrize on this significant achievement and wish them success as an independent listed entity.”
