Arrow Electronics Inc has split its stock 4 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on December 15, 1978 with the ratio of 110-for-100, meaning that for 100 shares of ARW owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 110 shares. 3 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on October 16, 1997 on a 2-for-1 basis.
These splits have increased ARW stock's liquidity and made it more appealing to a larger group of investors. However, it's important to remember that these actions only change the number of shares and the price per share with no impact on Arrow Electronics Inc's total market capitalization.

The answer will depend on the decisions of the company's managers and market volatility. Arrow Electronics Inc has not made an official announcement regarding whether it will enact a stock split or reverse stock split, but it has a history of doing so when ARW stock prices become too high or too low for retail investors. Therefore, the ultimate decisions will certainly be made by Arrow Electronics Inc's board of directors. Typically, no action is taken until its price per share reaches a specific threshold.
