Have Semtech Corporation's shares ever split?

Semtech Corporation's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 25 September 2000. 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 Semtech Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Semtech Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Semtech Corporation's share price.

Semtech Corporation share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Semtech Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $13.13 up to $46.86. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

SMTC.US volatility(beta: 1.55)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 Semtech Corporation's is 1.551. This would suggest that Semtech Corporation's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
