tomwarren Veteran Posted January 16, 2003 Veteran Share Posted January 16, 2003 Microsoft Corp. announced its first-ever dividend to shareholders Thursday and said it will issue a two-for-one stock split. Heeding some investors? calls to share in the Redmond software giant?s $40.5 billion in cash, the company said it will pay an annual dividend of 16 cents per share on a pre-split basis.... http://www.msnbc.com/news/860399.asp[/u:)] :) Also as a press release here http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2...n03/01-16ds.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinmthomas Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 I don't think you title best describes the situation. MS is paying a dividend which is amazing on its own, but they also announced stock split which was totally unexpected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
