Newpark Resources Inc (NR) Stock Split History

Newpark Resources Inc has split its stock 3 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on November 28, 1995 with the ratio of 21-for-20, meaning that for 20 shares of NR owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 21 shares. 2 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on November 28, 1997 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These splits have increased NR 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 Newpark Resources Inc's total market capitalization.

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