Wonder what their angle is? Why spend the money to change names?

Please share with employees. OK to forward or print.
At the end of 2007, ABX Air reorganized into a holding company structure and became a subsidiary of ABX Holdings, Inc. The management and Board of Directors of ABX Holdings has determined that changing the name of the holding company to Air Transport Services Group, Inc. would more accurately reflect the diverse nature of the business.
For the past five years, ABX Air has been working to diversify its revenue base through a range of service offerings. ABX Holdings' acquisition of Cargo Holdings International further increased this diversification.
We expect the proposed name to be confirmed by shareholders at the upcoming annual meeting in May.
Changing the name of the holding company will not affect the validity of the company's stock, though the company will seek to change its trading symbol from ABXA to ATSG.
