Found SEC order[https://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/33-7976.htm] for Sunbeam for artificially inflating its stock price:
"From the last quarter of 1996 until June 1998, Sunbeam Corporation's senior management created the illusion of a successful restructuring of Sunbeam in order to inflate its stock price and thus improve its value as an acquisition target..."
 
Couldn't find prices for either Sunbeam or Intergrated, so used the previous year's csho for Serena and moved on.
