Note: We highly recommend using auto generated events to help you handle stock splits instead of the following which is manual.
- Go to this page.
- For the Symbol fields:
- Include the exchange prefix
Example: Use USX:APPL instead of just AAPL. - If there is no change in Symbol, then type in the same symbol for both Symbol (Old) and Symbol (New) fields.
- Include the exchange prefix
- For the Stock Split Ratio fields:
- Enter the ratios according to how it is split
Example: If it is a 3:1 reverse stock split, Stock Split Ratio (Old) is 3. Stock Split Ratio (New) is 1.
- Enter the ratios according to how it is split
- Click on Split and you are done.
The above would create two transactions for you. A sell transaction to sell the shares you own before the reverse stock split, and a buy transaction to purchase the shares after the reverse stock split.
