Ethiopian Stock Tickers and ESX Listed Company Symbols
A stock ticker is a short code used to identify a company’s listed shares on a securities exchange. In Ethiopia, listed companies on the Ethiopian Securities Exchange use ticker symbols to identify their securities in market data, trading systems, price boards and company disclosures.
Searching a ticker can help you find a company’s latest share price, historical performance, prospectus, financial information and market announcements more quickly.

What Does a Stock Ticker Mean?
A ticker symbol is simply the market identifier for a listed security. For example, AWAB identifies Awash Bank S.C. shares on the Ethiopian Securities Exchange, while TELE identifies Ethio Telecom S.C. shares.
A ticker is not the same as a share certificate number, customer account number, company licence number or bank code. It is the short symbol used by the exchange and market participants to identify a company’s listed shares.
How to Use a Ticker Symbol
Investors and researchers can use ticker symbols to search for:
- Latest or last recorded ESX share price
- Daily price movement and percentage change
- Historical market performance
- Company financial information and audited reports
- Official prospectuses and listing documents
- Company news and material disclosures
For example, someone researching Awash Bank shares may search for AWAB share price, AWAB stock price Ethiopia or Awash Bank ticker.
Ticker Symbols Do Not Show Whether a Share Is Cheap or Expensive
A ticker symbol only identifies the security. It does not show whether a company is undervalued, overvalued, profitable, safe or suitable for a particular investor.
Before making an investment decision, review the company’s financial performance, risks, prospectus, shareholder rights, dividend history where available, market price and latest official disclosures.
