American Water Works Co Inc (AWK) Stock Split History

American Water Works Co Inc has split its stock 3 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on March 04, 1985 with the ratio of 2-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of AWK owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares. 2 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on July 26, 1996 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These splits have increased AWK 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 Water Works Co Inc's total market capitalization.

Will American Water Works Co Inc Stock Split in 2024?

The answer will depend on the decisions of the company's managers and market volatility.

Therefore, the ultimate decisions will certainly be made by American Water Works Co Inc's board of directors. Typically, no action is taken until its price per share reaches a specific threshold.
