American Vanguard Corp. (AVD) Stock Split History

American Vanguard Corp. has split its stock 9 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on November 02, 1988 with the ratio of 5-for-4, meaning that for 4 shares of AVD owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 5 shares. 8 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on April 18, 2006 on a 4-for-3 basis.

These splits have increased AVD 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 American Vanguard Corp.'s total market capitalization.

The answer will depend on the decisions of the company's managers and market volatility. American Vanguard Corp. 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 AVD stock prices become too high or too low for retail investors. Therefore, the ultimate decisions will certainly be made by American Vanguard Corp.'s board of directors. Typically, no action is taken until its price per share reaches a specific threshold.
