I suspect the parent used yahoo finance or the like to get historical stock prices. Historical stock prices are usually re-adjusted when a split happens so you get a clean history.

Yes, he explicitly said 'adjusted' stock price.

But, don't know if he accounted for dividends, which may have added another 1% annually.
