AbitibiBowater Changing Name to Resolute Forest Products
While the company will be doing business as Resolute Forest Products as of Nov. 7, AbitibiBowater Inc. and its subsidiaries will not change their legal entity names until the company obtains shareholder approval as required by law. The company will seek formal shareholder approval at its 2012 Annual General Meeting.
For customers, suppliers and other stakeholders with whom the company interacts, little will change beyond how the company will refer to itself and its products. The company will operate "business as usual" with respect to invoicing, payments, contracts, company stocks and stock market listings. AbitibiBowater will work to ensure the transition to the new identity is as smooth and seamless as possible for all of its stakeholders.
