That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.12% of the current stock value.

Jack In The Box's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 15 October 2007. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Jack In The Box shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Jack In The Box shares which in turn could have impacted Jack In The Box's share price.
