Yes the R/S happened 05/11/11 look at pps history, it is split adjusted. The actual pps on 5/5/11 was .0001 before the adjustment. After the adjustment pps=.10 on 5/5/11 (last day MSOA traded before opening 06/15/11 at .0111)

What Does Split Adjusted Mean?
A modification made to a security's price that takes into consideration the effect of a split on the total number of shares or units outstanding, in order to compare the security's current price to its historical price in a consistent form of valuation. In order to adjust a security's price, the post split price would be multiplied by the split ratio (or ratios if multiple splits had occurred) in order to get a split-adjusted price.

Investopedia explains Split Adjusted

If you own a stock that undergoes a stock split, it's imperative that you use the split-adjusted prices when calculating your return.

Consider a fictional company that traded for $20 a share in 1990. It has since undergone three 2-for-1 splits and now trades at $30. Although it may seem that the stock price has gone up 50%, it has actually appreciated by much more than that. One 1990 share would now be worth $240 because the original share is equivalent to eight current shares, each worth $30. This means that the stock has appreciated approximately 12 times. The 1990 split-adjusted share price would be $2.50 (20/8).
