在美国, AstraZeneca’s Ordinary Shares are traded in the form of American Depositary Shares (股美国存托凭证), evidenced by American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), which are traded on Nasdaq under ticker symbol AZN. ADS是一种以美元计价的股权形式，代表澳门在线赌城娱乐在英国存款的基础普通股, 并授予基础普通股产生的权利，包括在澳门在线赌城娱乐股东大会上的投票权和出席权，以及获得美元股息的权利.

Historically one ADS has been equal to one Ordinary Share of AstraZeneca, a 1:1 ratio.

2015年7月27日, a ratio change was effected so that two 股美国存托凭证 became equal to one Ordinary Share, 比例为2:1. 在记录日期2015年7月22日纽约时间营业结束时，ADS持有人每持有1个ADS将获得1个额外ADS的分配. No action was required by you to effect this change. These changes brought the AstraZeneca ADS price broadly in line with the market average and, as the ADS price reduced, it is thought that  the shares should be more attractive to individual shareholders and liquidity improved.

The number of 股美国存托凭证 that were registered in your name at the close of business on 22 July 2015 New York time were doubled. 虽然不可能将比率变化对澳门在线赌城娱乐ads价格的影响从影响价格的所有因素中分离出来, 据信，直接的影响是价格下降到比率变化之前普遍价格的大约一半. The reduction in price, 再加上以你的名义持有的美国存托股份翻倍，你持有的美国存托股份的价值应该立即保持不变, as it had been immediately before, 比率变化.

Following the ADS ratio change in July 2015, each ADS represents half an underlying Ordinary Share. Each ADS held on the dividend record date will  t在这里fore receive half of the dividend rate declared per Ordinary Share. 

No. The ratio change should have no US federal income tax implications for ADS holders, 除非这些持有人应将收到额外ADS的原始ADS中持有人的税收基础的一半分配给每个额外ADS. If you hold 股美国存托凭证 as capital assets for US federal income tax purposes, 出于资本利得税的目的，您对额外ADS的持有期应包括您对收到额外ADS的现有ADS的持有期.

是的, beginning with the second interim dividend paid on 23 March 2015, holders of American Depositary Shares (股美国存托凭证) will be charged a total of $0.03 (3 cents) per ADS annually to cover costs related to the ADS programme. 费用为0美元.01(1美分)将从第一次中期股息中扣除，该股息通常在第二季度和半年业绩公布时公布，并于每年9月支付, 费用是0美元.02英镑(2美分)将从第二次中期股息中扣除，该股息通常与第四季度和全年业绩一起公布，并于每年3月支付. 

A large majority of dividend-paying FTSE100 companies that have an ADR/ADS programme charge dividend fees. AstraZeneca's dividend fee as a percentage of its dividends declared in respect of 2022 ($1.45 / ADR)为2.1% compared to the FTSE100 sponsored ADR average of 6.5%

“锅炉房”欺诈可能有不同的形式，但通常涉及使用高压销售技巧和机会的承诺，看起来好得令人难以置信. 澳门在线赌城娱乐的股东可能会受到来自海外“经纪人”的不请自来的电话或信件的攻击，这些经纪人通常是关于投资和承诺高财务回报的. 不幸的是, the high profits promised never materialise and shareholders are often left significantly out of pocket. 这些“经纪人”往往既固执又极具说服力，甚至有经验的投资者也会成为骗局的受害者.  This type of fraud is called ‘boiler room’ fraud because of the high pressure sales techniques used by the ‘brokers’.  5,每年有000人联系金融市场行为监管局(FCA)调查股票欺诈，受害者平均损失20英镑,000.

AstraZeneca shareholders are advised to be extremely cautious of any unsolicited approaches offering advice, free reports and offers to buy shares at a discount or sell at an inflated price.
