Have Metalsearch 's shares ever split?

Metalsearch 's shares were split on a 1:10 basis on 19 April 2017. So if you had owned 10 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 Metalsearch shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Metalsearch shares which in turn could have impacted Metalsearch 's share price.
