Middlesex Water Co. (MSEX) Stock Split History

Middlesex Water Co. has split its stock 4 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on January 02, 1985 with the ratio of 2-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of MSEX owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares. 3 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on November 17, 2003 on a 4-for-3 basis.

These splits have increased MSEX 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 Middlesex Water Co.'s total market capitalization.

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