Magellan Petroleum Corp

TELL · Oil & Gas · AMEX · in our data November 1, 1982 to October 8, 2024 (41.9 years)

Our price history begins on November 1, 1982, and Magellan Petroleum Corp was already trading then; how long before that, our data does not say. At its peak, on February 27, 2017, the market valued it at $4.1 billion. It ended in a collapse: the last trade was $1.00, -97.2% from its split-adjusted high. The delisting record says: merged or acquired.

Share prices are adjusted for splits and other share changes, so the high and the last price compare like for like; the peak market value is as it was on the day. The return covers the trading days in our data only: it does not include what holders received, or lost, after the last trade (a merger payout, a bankruptcy), and it does not reach back before 1982.
