Mobil merged with Exxon years ago. Do you have the physical stock certificate in your possession?
You should contact the transfer agent for ExxonMobil: Computershare, 800-252-1800 or 781-575-2058. |

You could also try the Unclaimed Property department for your state or province.
Many of them use missingmoney.com . |

that's only true if it was a share transfer. if it is an all cash offer, then she would be entitled only to the cash. |

I have to ask a question.
If you owned this stock for years, why have you not questioned why you have not received the dividend checks?
I could understand if a relative owned the stock, died, and was not directly inherited by someone their could be confusion, but to own it, and not receive the dividends for years, I have to question this.
Are you sure you did not sell it, or possibly anything under 100 shares were paid out in cash to the original owner at the time of the merger.
Some buy outs/mergers pay cash for small number of shares owned by investors rather than have paperwork incurred by the new company for small stock positions.
Since it was years ago, it is possible you received a check at the merger closing for the shares, and since you did not "personally sell it", you have simply forgotten the payout.
Just a thought.

I found this site while googling Mobil oil historical stock price and dividend payments. It might help some, but I did not have time to check it out. www.lib.utexas.edu/taro/utcah/00455/cah-00455.htmlEdit: I tried to open some files tonight, but unfortunately they will not open for me. I found one titled "annual meetings" for Mobil, but could not open the file. I thought that might contain info useful to the merger with Exxon. I was surprised to see this too was part of the the old Standard Oil company decades ago. I am thinking, one might be able to google Exxon Mobil and find the data needed at the time of the merger for the answer. |

I googled Mobil stock and dividends around 1999 and found this. They were paying a dividend for many years. I have not found anything with the legal merger of the two companies concerning small quantities of stocks owned by shareholders, whether they were converted to the new shares, or cashed out to the shareholder of record. Mobil Corp. was acquired by Exxon for 1.32015 Exxon shares on Nov. 30, 1999. According to the Mergent 1999 Annual Dividend Record (available in many public libraries) the dividends paid in the last 2 years of its existence were: 1999: $2.28 1998: $2.28 An excellent business school library in your area is likely to carry Mergent?s print dividend records back several decades: Mergent www.mergent.com/publish/product67.aspMobil?s electronically-filed documents are still online at the SEC Edgar website, so we can go there to add a few years to the dividend record by looking at the annual report. The 1997 annual report appears to have a complete dividend history AND stock split history on p. 21 -- SEC Edgar Mobil 1997 Annual Report www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/67182/0000928385-98-000503.txtANNUAL DIVIDENDS (Per share of common stock, in dollars)* 97 $2.12* 96 $1.96 95 $1.81 94 $1.70 93 $1.63 92 $1.60 91 $1.56 90 $1.41 89 $1.28 88 $1.18 87 $1.10 * 1997 had a stock split of 2-1 and dividend payments reflect this split --- To find stock prices, it?s helpful to use either the Wall Street Journal microfilms or New York Times for daily closing prices. The New York Times archive is available on their website or at many public libraries via the subscription Proquest Historical Newspaper online service. I?ve used the latter because my public library has it available at no charge ? as most larger libraries will. June 12, 1987 was a Friday, so the Mobil closing price on the NYSE reported in Saturday?s paper was: 49 1/8, +3/8 |
