CRH is moving its primary listing to the U.S. and will delist its shares from the Euronext Dublin stock exchange on Sept. 25.

The Irish building-materials supplier, which received shareholders' approval to transition to a U.S. primary listing in June, will keep a standard listing on the London Stock Exchange.

CRH first listed its stock on the Euronext Dublin in 1973, followed by a London listing in 2005.

The majority of CRH's business is in North America, which represents about 75% of the company's earnings before interest, taxed, depreciation and amortization.

"The U.S. is expected to be a key driver of future growth for CRH due to continued economic expansion, a growing population and significant construction needs," CRH said in June.

CRH most recently reported a pretax profit for the first half of the year of $1.51 billion from $1.20 billion a year ago. Revenue rose 7.6%, to $16.14 billion.
