(Reuters) -Ukraine’s biggest mobile operator, Kyivstar, said on Thursday its shares will begin trading on the Nasdaq on August 15, making it the first Ukrainian company to be listed on a U.S. stock exchange.
Kyivstar, owned by telecoms group VEON, is the market leader in Ukraine with more than 24 million subscribers.
Its revenue and profit have risen since Russia’s invasion, despite repeated cyberattacks and power outages.
The company has deepened its US ties during the conflict, appointing former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to its board and signing a deal with Elon Musk’s Starlink for satellite services.
