Have ACI Worldwide's shares ever split?

ACI Worldwide's shares were split on a 3:1 basis on 10 July 2014 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your ACI Worldwide shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 66.7% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for ACI Worldwide shares which in turn could have impacted ACI Worldwide's share price.

ACI Worldwide share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, ACI Worldwide's shares have ranged in value from as little as $28.79 up to $59.71. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
