Vulcan Materials Co (VMC) Stock Split History

Vulcan Materials Co has split its stock 3 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on May 17, 1976 with the ratio of 2-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of VMC owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares. 2 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on March 11, 1999 on a 3-for-1 basis.

These splits have increased VMC 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 Vulcan Materials Co's total market capitalization.

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