What is a stock split?
A stock split is a corporate action that increases the number of a company’s outstanding shares while adjusting the share price in proportion to the split ratio. Although the price per share changes, the company’s overall market value and each investor’s proportional ownership remain the same at the moment the split takes effect.
Companies typically use stock splits to make high-priced shares appear more accessible to a wider base of investors and employees. Splits can also support liquidity by increasing the number of shares available to trade, which may help align the stock’s price with peers or internal capital-management objectives.
