ADT Employees Ring in 150 Years at the NYSE
On August 14, 2024, ADT reached an incredible milestone, powered by our people — 150 years of protecting families and businesses nationwide. To honor this significant achievement, ten ADT employees were selected to be a part of the celebration alongside Jim DeVries, CEO, and Jeff Likosar, CFO, at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to ring the opening bell. This event was a celebration of ADT’s long history and a heartfelt tribute to our exceptional employees and the vital role they play in driving our success.
Ringing the opening bell at the NYSE is a symbolic gesture that represents the start of a new trading day. For ADT, it also marked the beginning of a new chapter in its remarkable journey. This event was a ceremonial act and a powerful statement of the company’s resilience, growth, and the trust it has built over 150 years. The occasion highlighted ADT’s leadership in the security industry and its ability to adapt to ever-changing challenges while staying true to its mission of protecting and connecting what matters most.
For the employees, being recognized in this way was an unforgettable experience.
“Being one of the 10 team members chosen to represent ADT on its 150th birthday at the New York Stock Exchange was an experience of a lifetime. It was my first time in New York, and being up there with Jim DeVries and Jeff Likosar is something I’ll cherish forever. It’s a memory I’ll carry with me always, and one I’ll proudly share with my friends and family.”
