Previously traded on the AMEX as symbol SCF, or the Scandinavia Company, Inc. The company previously split their stock 2:1 on October 22nd, 1999 after announcing on Sept. 30th. Based in the Cayman Islands, XLA's BoD approved a 2:1 stock split this morning in the form of a dividend. Shareholder record date will be Dec. 28th, 1999 and the payable is expected near Jan. 7th, 2000. As a foreign company there is some confusion as to how many shares outstanding truly exist. Research uncovers either 19.2 mln or 13.2 mln. Authorized shares number 20 mln. It is unsure whether XLA's board has the ability to raise the number of authorized shares as we do not see any news of an approaching shareholder meeting. The float is only 3 million shares. Trading for XLA has been volatile lately. SplitTrader.com will be watching for any developing trend as the short time frame on this split may pique investor interest.
