Have Ducommun Incorporated's shares ever split?

Ducommun Incorporated's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 10 June 1998. So if you had owned 2 shares 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 Ducommun Incorporated shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Ducommun Incorporated shares which in turn could have impacted Ducommun Incorporated's share price.

Ducommun Incorporated share price volatility
