Reach has recently paid out dividends equivalent to 2.10% of its share value annually.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 12 August 2021 (the "ex-dividend date").
Reach's shares were split on a 24:23 basis on 23 October 2020. So if you had owned 23 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 24 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Reach shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 4.2% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Reach shares which in turn could have impacted Reach's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Reach's shares have ranged in value from as little as 97.9751p up to 428.5p. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (LSE average) beta is 1, while Reach's is 0.3506. This would suggest that Reach's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
