sent this query to scottrade:
what does this statement mean? As of February 28, 2005, we had outstanding 74,317,832 shares of our common
stock which were held by approximately 325 stockholders of record. am i a shareholder of record if i own shares in this company?
their response:
Thank you for your e-mail. On the record date, a company looks to see who its shareholders or "holders of record" are. Essentially, a date of record ensures the dividend checks get sent to the right people. If you owned them on February 28, 2005, yes you were a shareholder of record.
also sent the query to biph.
will report when i get a response.
