Types of Preferred Stock

1. Cumulative: Most preferred stock is cumulative, meaning that if the company withholds part, or all, of the expected dividends, these are considered dividends in arrears and must be paid before any other dividends. Preferred stock that doesn't carry the cumulative feature is called straight, or noncumulative, preferred.

3. Convertible: The timing for conversion and the conversion price specific to the individual issue will be laid out in the preferred stock's prospectus.

4. Participating: Preferred stock has a fixed dividend rate. If the company issues participating preferreds, those stocks gain the potential to earn more than their stated rate. The exact formula for participation will be found in the prospectus. Most preferreds are non-participating.

5. Adjustable-Rate Preferred Stock (ARPS): These relatively recent additions to the spectrum pay dividends based on several factors stipulated by the company. Dividends for ARPSs are keyed to yields on U.S. government issues, providing the investor limited protection against adverse interest rate markets.

Flexibility of payments: Preferred dividends may be suspended in case of corporate cash problems.

Easier to market: The majority of preferred stock is bought and held by institutions, which may make it easier to market at the initial public offering.

Unlisted Stocks

Why would a public company keep its stock unlisted

It prefers not to pay the listing fees

It has too few outstanding shares or its shares are too thinly (infrequently) traded

It formerly was listed on an exchange but became delisted when it no longer fulfilled the exchange's requirements

How to handle those requests for old stock prices.

Verify the company name, ticker symbol, and exchange on which the stock is traded. Know whether you are looking for common or preferred stock and for which date(s). Watch out for name changes, mergers, stock splits, or other corporate capital events.
