What happened? HP spun off Agilent. Agilent spun off Keysight. HP spun off HPE. HPE spun off DXC, which spun off Perspecta, which was bought by Peraton. HPE Software was spun off to UK-based Micro Focus, which paid out cash, and was bought by Canada-based OpenText.
How 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 other payout 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 HPQ shares on Oct 21, 2015 (date of the HPInc/HPE split) -- 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
