Procter & Gamble Co. (PG) Stock Split History

Procter & Gamble Co. has split its stock 5 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on February 22, 1983 with the ratio of 2-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of PG owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares. 4 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on June 21, 2004 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These splits have increased PG 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 Procter & Gamble Co.'s total market capitalization.

Will Procter & Gamble Co. Stock Split in 2024?

The answer will depend on the decisions of the company's managers and market volatility.

Therefore, the ultimate decisions will certainly be made by Procter & Gamble Co.'s board of directors. Typically, no action is taken until its price per share reaches a specific threshold.
