The History of Apple's Stock Splits
Apple has undergone a total of 5 stock splits since its initial public offering (IPO) in 1980. The most recent stock split occurred on August 31st, 2020, when the company executed a 4-for-1 split. This means that for every one share of Apple stock that an investor owned prior to the split, they received four shares after the split.The Impact of Stock Splits on Shareholders
Stock splits can have a significant impact on shareholders, both positive and negative. On the positive side, stock splits can make a company's stock more affordable and accessible to a wider range of investors. This can lead to increased demand for the stock. The increased demand can drive up the stock price, which can benefit existing shareholders. On the negative side, stock splits can also reduce the value of an individual share of stock. This is because the total number of shares outstanding increases after a split, which means that each share represents a smaller percentage of the company.Apple's Stock Split History
