Dex One (formerly R.H. Donnelley) (Cary, NC), which began bankruptcy proceedings with approximately $12 billion in debt, has emerged from bankruptcy and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange Feb. 1, changing its name to Dex One.

Donnelley filed for bankruptcy in May 2009 under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware and emerged at the end of January after eliminating more than $6 billion in debt.

“Today marks a new chapter in our company’s history,” said Dex One chairman and CEO Dave Swanson in a prepared statement. “We selected the Dex One name because it clearly communicates who we are and what we do—Dex, your trusted marketing partner for over a hundred years, and now, your one stop shop for getting your business exposed to active buying consumers whether they’re searching our robust suite of Dex products or on other major search sites or search engines.”
