What is a transfer agent?

A transfer agent and registrar for a publicly held company keeps records of every outstanding stock certificate and the name of the person to whom it is registered. When stock changes hands, the transfer agent transfers the ownership of the stock from the seller's name to the buyer's name. The registrar reconciles all transfer records and makes sure that the number of shares debited is equal to the number of shares credited. HPE's transfer agent is EQ Shareowner Services.

The transfer agent does not maintain records of shares bought and sold through brokerage accounts and held in "street name." Those records are maintained by the specific brokerages through which the shares are bought and sold.

How do I change my address on my account?

If you own shares through a brokerage firm, you need to contact the brokerage firm directly to change your account address. If you're a registered shareholder you need to contact HPE's transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company at:

Stock Splits

Why does stock split?

A stock split makes the price of the company's stock more affordable and attractive to investors. For some time now the market has demonstrated confidence in HPE's current and future performance with an increase in the price of the stock. By splitting the stock and reducing the price, HPE is making it possible for more people to invest in the company.

How does a 2-for-1 stock split actually work?

A 2-for-1 split means that a new share of stock is issued for each share in existence prior to the split. After the split, each share is worth half of what it was worth immediately prior to the split but the total monetary value of the shares is the same as before the stock split.

Here's an example:
Let us assume that prior to the stock split, a shareholder owned 100 shares of HPE common stock and let's also assume that the market price of HPE stock was $50 per share, so that the investment in HPE was worth $5,000.00. Immediately after the split, the investor will own 200 shares of stock, but the market price will be $25 per share. The investor's total investment value in HPE remains the same at $5,000 until the stock price moves up or down.

Has HPE's stock ever split?

No.

What is the effective date of the split?

There are several key dates when discussing a stock split:

The Record Date determines which shareholders are entitled to receive additional shares due to the split;
The Payment (distribution) Date is the date when holders of record or brokers were mailed notification of the shares subject to split; and
The Ex Date is the date when HPE common shares resume trading at the new split-adjusted price.

How will I receive my additional shares?

If you hold a physical stock certificate, you will receive a Direct Registration Transaction Advice for the additional shares you hold as a result of the split. You will have full responsibility of the shares without holding a physical certificate for them. The Direct Registration Transaction Advice is your confirmation; it indicates the number of additional shares as a result of the split. Keep this document with your existing stock certificates and other important documents as a record of your ownership.

If your shares are held in a brokerage account, the new shares will automatically be deposited to your account.

Our stock transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, mails written notice to registered shareholders indicating their split-adjusted shares. If your HPE stock is held in a brokerage account, the information is sent directly to your broker.

Where were my shares mailed?

If you hold HPE stock in your name, you were notified at the address Equiniti Trust Company has on file. To verify your address you can call Equiniti Trust Company directly at 286-5977 (for U.S. callers) and 651-450-4064 (for non-U.S. callers). If your HPE stock was held in a brokerage account, the information was sent directly to your broker.
