Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a stock split?

A stock split is a corporate action where a company divides its existing shares into multiple shares to boost liquidity. For example, in a 1:2 split, each share is split into 2 shares, halving the price but keeping the total investment value unchanged.

Why do companies do stock splits?

Companies often split their shares to make the stock price more affordable to retail investors, improve liquidity, and signal growth. It doesn't change the company's market capitalization.

How does this calculator work?

You enter the split ratio (e.g., 1:5), your current stock holding, and the face value. The calculator computes how many shares you'll own post-split and what the new face value will be.

Does the value of my investment change after a stock split?

No, the total value of your investment remains the same. You will hold more shares, but each share will be worth less, maintaining the same overall value.
