Forward Air Corporation's shares were split on a 3:2 basis on 3 April 2005 . 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 Forward Air Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Forward Air Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Forward Air Corporation's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Forward Air Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $9.785 up to $40.92. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
