Viatris Inc has split its stock 10 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on November 16, 1981 with the ratio of 2-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of VTRS owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares. 9 more splits have been implemented since then. The most recent stock split took place on October 09, 2003 on a 3-for-2 basis.
These splits have increased VTRS 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 Viatris Inc's total market capitalization.

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