Aegon (AEG) has 5 splits in our AEG split history database. The first split for AEG took place on June 16, 1992. This was a 2 for 1
split, meaning for each share of AEG owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 1000 share position pre-split, became a 2000 share position following the split. AEG's second split took place on June 09, 1995. This was a 5 for 2
split, meaning for each 2
shares of AEG owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 5 shares. For example, a 2000 share position pre-split, became a 5000 share position following the split. AEG's third split took place on May 26, 1998. This was a 2 for 1
split, meaning for each share of AEG owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 5000 share position pre-split, became a 10000 share position following the split. AEG's 4th split took place on May 30, 2000. This was a 2 for 1
split, meaning for each share of AEG owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 10000 share position pre-split, became a 20000 share position following the split. AEG's 5th split took place on April 17, 2003. This was a 104 for 100 split, meaning for each 100 shares of AEG owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 104 shares. For example, a 20000 share position pre-split, became a 20800 share position following the split.
When a company such as Aegon 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 AEG split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 20800 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into Aegon shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of AEG, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete AEG split history.
