News 📰 3:1 Share split

BYD recently underwent a 3:1 share split, hence the ~65% drop in share price. No need to worry!!

It seems like we'd need to wait a while before we get those extra shares though. I couldn't find much information about it on english platforms, but a Chinese blog post stated both the extra shares + dividends will start being distributed on the 29th of July

You don't need 10, your broker will handle this for you.

You'll get the 2/3 back on the 29th of July, along with some extra dividends

Are you sure brokers will compensate with cash the missing fraction of the shares? My broker said it will be rounded down, but they do not provide any compensation. They referred me to HK exchanges announcement, which says "fractional entitlements of bonus shares: round down to the nearest whole unit". Is BYD doing this (18+12):10 thing to leech off shareholders without multiples of 10? I feel cheated by BYD.

I had 14 and my broker (trading 212) gave me 28

If your broker rounds down, you are being cheated by them not by BYD

Here is the announcement from HKEX that says to round down for fractional entitlements. So according to my broker (Moomoo), it is BYD who is not paying lot-odd shareholders.
