Colgate Palmolive Co (CL) Stock Split History

Colgate Palmolive Co has split its stock 5 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on May 30, 1973 with the ratio of 3-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of CL owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 3 shares. 4 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on May 16, 2013 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These splits have increased CL 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 Colgate Palmolive Co's total market capitalization.

Will Colgate Palmolive Co Stock Split in 2024?

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