How will the two-for-one stock split affect my share ownership in FTI?
Shareholders of record on March 14, 2011, will receive one additional share of common stock on March 31, 2011, for each share held. During the period between March 14, 2011 and March 31, 2001, the stock will trade "regular way with due bills". Anyone who purchases the stock up through the distribution date of March 31, 2011, is entitled to receive the split shares (due bill attachment). Anyone who sells the stock prior to the distribution date looses the right to the split shares. FMC Technologies common stock will begin trading on a split adjusted basis on April 1, 2011. The value of your FTI Stock investment will not change due to the two-for-one split. After the split, you will own approximately twice as many shares of FMC Technologies stock. However, the price of those shares will be approximately half of what it was just prior to the stock split so the total value of the investment remains the same.
When was FMC Technologies' initial public offering and what was the price?
FMC Technologies initial public offering occurred June 14, 2001. 11,050,000 shares were offered on the New York Stock Exchange at $20.00 per share.
