Stock event timeline – how many shares (and how much cash) should you have received?
Part of our process to find stock and estimate cost basis. Start here: Stock Step-by-Step
(Not officially endorsed or supported.)
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
link in the blue column to find the most recent dividends
or other payouts 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
(If you need more detail:
Stock Decoder Table The HPAA's central information page
for stock -- old and new stock symbols, shares or cash paid, links
to more info, state to check for unclaimed stock, official investor
FAQ, cost basis allocations.)

Did you get the most recent dividend or other
payout? Either a check sent directly to you or cash credited to your
account at an administrator or broker.
(This indicates that the stock is still registered in your name somewhere.)
Spinoffs, Dividends,
