Have iSentric 's shares ever split?

iSentric 's shares were split on a 1:3 basis on 21 August 2014. So if you had owned 3 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your iSentric shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 200% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for iSentric shares which in turn could have impacted iSentric 's share price.
