  • TotalEnergies mulls cross-listing in US & Europe to broaden investor reach, maintaining European market presence.
  • Chairman Pouyanne eyes New York listing for US access, reaffirms commitment to Paris market, citing majority European shareholders.

TotalEnergies SE TTE shares are trading higher on Friday.

The company is reportedly considering options to cross-list its shares in both the U.S. and the Euronext stock exchange, Reuters reported.

“It’s more a technical study, how to offer these shares to the American market, while keeping our shares on Euronext, in Paris, in London, in Brussels, because the majority of our shareholders are European,” Chairman and Chief Executive Patrick Pouyanne told the company’s annual shareholder meeting, Reuters added.

In April, Pouyanne stated TotalEnergies was actively considering a primary listing in New York to facilitate U.S. investor access. He committed to reporting back to the board by September and affirmed the company’s ongoing listing on the Paris stock market.

“We’d like to do a cross-listing,” he added, Reuters noted.

Earlier this month, TotalEnergies and SINOPEC partnered to develop a 230,000 tons/year sustainable aviation fuel unit in a China refinery.

Investors can gain exposure to the stock via First Trust Exchange-Traded Fund IV FT Energy Income Partners Strategy ETF EIPX and Keating Active ETF KEAT.

Price Action: TTE shares are trading higher by 1.68% to $71.69 at last check Friday.
