Jay Schottenstein , executive chairman and chief executive officer, rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange, flanked by Jennifer Foyle, president, executive creative director of American Eagle and Aerie, and other members of the company’s leadership.

The company, which opened its first store in 1977, went public on the Nasdaq exchange in 1994 and began trading on the NYSE under the “AEO” symbol in 2007.

“It’s an incredible honor to be able to celebrate AEO and our 30-year anniversary as a public company with so many of our associates and executive leadership team,” Schottenstein said. “Since we began trading on the NYSE, we have truly valued the exchange’s strong partnership and support as we’ve continued to grow our portfolio of enduring and beloved brands. Today, we are at a pivotal moment for AEO and I have never been more optimistic about our future.”
