Vertex Energy share dividends

We're not expecting Vertex Energy to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.

Have Vertex Energy's shares ever split?

Vertex Energy's shares were split on a 1:10 basis on 3 May 2009 . So if you had owned 10 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 Vertex Energy shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Vertex Energy shares which in turn could have impacted Vertex Energy's share price.

Vertex Energy share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Vertex Energy's shares have ranged in value from as little as $0.03 up to $4.71. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

VTNR.US volatility(beta: 1.37)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Vertex Energy's is 1.371. This would suggest that Vertex Energy's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
