New York Times Co. (NYT) Stock Split History

New York Times Co. has split its stock 3 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on December 22, 1983 with the ratio of 3-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of NYT owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 3 shares. 2 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on July 02, 1998 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These splits have increased NYT 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 New York Times Co.'s total market capitalization.

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