This table applies to Agilent-related stock issued to holders of HP stock as of May 5, 2000.  Otherwise, go back to Step 1. Stock

Example:

If you owned 100 shares of HPQ on May 2, 2000 -- and never sold any of the stock that resulted from the Agilent spinoff -- today you should have:

- Approx. 38 A shares (Agilent) issued in 2000.

- In 2011, you were paid approx. $70 for your VRGY shares, which were sold on July 4, 2011. Either cash was paid into your brokerage cash account or a check was mailed.

- Approx. 19 KEYS shares (Keysight) issued in 2014.

Steps to use the table:

Step 1: In the table below, compare the date when you first acquired HP stock with the dates of these major HP/HPE-related stock events. This indicates the public companies you should have shares in based on your purchases of HP stock (if if happens that you never sold any of the HP spinoff shares.)

Step 2: Click on each "Dividends" link in the blue column to find the most recent dividend or payout in stock or cash that you should have received if you still have the stock registered in your name -- with your correct postal address.

Step 3: If you had 100 shares of HPQ on May 2, 2000 (date of the Agilent spinoff) -- and have not initiated the sale of any HP or spinoff stock since -- you should currently have the number of shares (and have received cash) as shown in the green column. (Amounts approximate, since fractional shares are paid out in cash.)

Step 3: If you are not getting dividends or payouts for a stock you believe you own, go to  Check for lost stock and uncashed checks
