Verisign Inc (VRSN) Stock Split History

Verisign Inc has split its stock 2 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on June 01, 1999 with the ratio of 2-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of VRSN owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares. The most recent stock split took place on December 07, 1999 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These actions have increased VRSN stock's liquidity and made it more appealing to a larger group of investors. However, it's important to remember that a stock split only change the number of shares and the price per share with no impact on Verisign Inc's total market capitalization.

Will Verisign Inc Stock Split in 2024?

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