Brookfield Renewable Partners LP (BEP) has 2 splits in our BEP split history database. The first split for BEP took place on July 30, 2020. This was a 1251 for 1000 split, meaning for each 1000 shares of BEP owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 1251 shares. For example, a 1000 share position pre-split, became a 1251 share position following the split. BEP's second split took place on December 14, 2020. This was a 3 for 2 split, meaning for each 2 shares of BEP owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 3 shares. For example, a 1251 share position pre-split, became a 1876.5 share position following the split.
When a company such as Brookfield Renewable Partners LP 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 BEP split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 1876.5 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into Brookfield Renewable Partners LP shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of BEP, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete BEP split history.
