Carnival Corp. (CCL) Stock Split History

Carnival Corp. has split its stock 2 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on December 15, 1994 with the ratio of 2-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of CCL owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares. The most recent stock split took place on June 15, 1998 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These actions have increased CCL stock's liquidity and made it more appealing to a larger group of investors. However, it's important to remember that a stock split only change the number of shares and the price per share with no impact on Carnival Corp.'s total market capitalization.

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