Titan Ranked Second For Stock Appreciation
Titan International has been ranked second in terms of stock appreciation in a list compiled from New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) companies. In 2004 the companies share price increased 393.5 per cent, second only to WR Grace & Co. The price of Titan’s stock grew from $3.06 on 31 December 2003 to $15.10 by the end of 2004.
“We congratulate W R Grace for their outstanding stock performance,” said Titan president and CEO, Maurice Taylor Jr. “Seeing Titan’s market value reach the levels where we knew it should be is rewarding. An investment of $3,000 in TWI stock on the first trading day of 2004, would have been worth approximately $15,000 on the last day of 2004. The effort and commitment of our employees and stockholders have made it possible to return to profitability and to achieve this remarkable progress and recognition within the investment community.”
Titan’s announcement marks a distinct turnaround in the company’s financial performance. Little over a year ago Titan was in danger of being de-listed from the NYSE for having a very low share price.
