Stock split
Māori translation:
Definition
A stock split increases the number of shares of a company’s stock while reducing the price per share. This corporate action makes the stock more accessible to investors without changing the company’s market capitalisation. A reverse stock split reduces the number of shares and increases the price per share. This action may be taken by a company’s management to elevate market perception of the stock.
