TTM: trailing 12 months
We're not expecting LightPath Technologies to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
LightPath Technologies's shares were split on a 1:8 basis on 3 March 2003 . So if you had owned 8 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your LightPath Technologies shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 700% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for LightPath Technologies shares which in turn could have impacted LightPath Technologies's share price.
Over the last 12 months, LightPath Technologies's shares have ranged in value from as little as $1.04 up to $4.42. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while LightPath Technologies's is 1.758. This would suggest that LightPath Technologies's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
