ABCW (ABCW) has 3 splits in our ABCW split history database. The first split for ABCW took place on October 30, 1995. This was a 5 for 4
split, meaning for each 4
shares of ABCW owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 5 shares. For example, a 1000 share position pre-split, became a 1250 share position following the split. ABCW's second split took place on August 18, 1997. This was a 2 for 1
split, meaning for each share of ABCW owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 1250 share position pre-split, became a 2500 share position following the split. ABCW's third split took place on August 25, 1998. This was a 2 for 1
split, meaning for each share of ABCW owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 2500 share position pre-split, became a 5000 share position following the split.
When a company such as ABCW splits its shares, the market capitalization before and after the split takes place remains stable, meaning the shareholder now owns more shares but each are valued at a lower price per share. Often, however, a lower priced stock on a per-share basis can attract a wider range of buyers. If that increased demand causes the share price to appreciate, then the total market capitalization rises post-split. This does not always happen, however, often depending on the underlying fundamentals of the business.
Looking at the ABCW split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 5000 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into ABCW shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of ABCW, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete ABCW split history.
