Wendy's Co has split its stock 11 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on February 24, 1981 with the ratio of 105-for-100, meaning that for 100 shares of WEN owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 105 shares. 10 more splits have been implemented since then.

Will Wendy's Co Stock Split in 2024?

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