HALLIBURTON DECLARES TWO-FOR-ONE COMMON STOCK SPLIT
DALLAS, Texas -- Halliburton Company (NYSE:HAL) announced today that
its board of directors has approved a two-for-one common stock split effected in
the form of a stock dividend, to shareholders of record at the close of business
on June 26, 1997. Certificates for the new shares will be mailed on or about
July 21, 1997. Par value will remain at $2.50 per share.
Previously, Halliburton announced a 1997 second quarter common stock
cash dividend of 25 cents per share, payable June 25, 1997 to shareholders of
record at the close of business on June 4, 1997. The common stock split is an
event subsequent to the cash dividend payment. Had the common stock split
occurred prior to this cash dividend, the dividend would have been equivalent to
12.5 cents per share.
Halliburton Company is one of the world's largest diversified energy
services, engineering, maintenance, and construction companies. Founded in 1919,
Halliburton provides a broad range of energy services and products, industrial
