shares of ADP owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 3 shares. For example, a 1000 share position pre-split, became a 1500 share position following the split. ADP's second split took place on April 02, 2007. This was a 10000 for 9033 split, meaning for each 9033 shares of ADP owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 10000 shares.

This was a 1139 for 1000 split, meaning for each 1000 shares of ADP owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 1139 shares.

When a company such as Automatic Data Processing splits its shares, the market capitalization before and after the split takes place remains stable, meaning the shareholder now owns more shares but each are valued at a lower price per share. Often, however, a lower priced stock on a per-share basis can attract a wider range of buyers. If that increased demand causes the share price to appreciate, then the total market capitalization rises post-split. This does not always happen, however, often depending on the underlying fundamentals of the business.
Looking at the ADP split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 1891.39820657589 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into Automatic Data Processing shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of ADP, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete ADP split history.
