Row notes (6)
  • August 22, 2000Peak dot-com era split executed as AMD’s valuation reached historic highs following the successful launch of the Athlon processor, which first hit the 1GHz milestone.
  • August 23, 1983Strategic 2-for-1 forward split driven by the rapid growth of the IBM PC market, where AMD served as a critical second-source supplier of microprocessors.
  • October 28, 1982Technical 3-for-2 adjustment aimed at improving market liquidity as AMD expanded its manufacturing capabilities to meet surging demand for computing hardware.
  • October 24, 1980Significant forward split occurring shortly after AMD’s listing on the New York Stock Exchange, reflecting the company’s transition into a major industry player.
  • September 18, 1979Growth-oriented share distribution implemented following the success of the AmZ8000 family, marking a pivotal year in AMD’s proprietary chip development.
  • September 19, 1978Historical capital adjustment issued as a stock dividend to reward early shareholders during the formative years of the semiconductor industry expansion.

Pre-split price is the final regular-session close on a trading day strictly before the split calendar date. Post-split price is the first session open on or after that date. Both values come from unadjusted end-of-day bars for the company's primary listing.

The Type column reflects the data feed's event category (for example stock split vs stock dividend). When the feed labels a generic split but the ratio is reverse (e.g. 1:10), we show reverse stock split. Optional editorial context for a row appears next to the split ratio as an info icon (hover or keyboard focus on desktop; tap on mobile). The same text is listed under Row notes when that block is expanded.
