CSP (CSPI) has 4 splits in our CSPI split history database. The first split for CSPI took place on March 20, 1998. This was a 11 for 10
split, meaning for each 10
shares of CSPI owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 11 shares. For example, a 1000 share position pre-split, became a 1100 share position following the split. CSPI's second split took place on October 22, 1998. This was a 11 for 10
split, meaning for each 10
shares of CSPI owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 11 shares. For example, a 1100 share position pre-split, became a 1210 share position following the split. CSPI's third split took place on April 19, 1999. This was a 11 for 10
split, meaning for each 10
shares of CSPI owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 11 shares. For example, a 1210 share position pre-split, became a 1331 share position following the split. CSPI's 4th split took place on March 21, 2024. This was a 2 for 1 split, meaning for each share of CSPI owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 1331 share position pre-split, became a 2662 share position following the split.
When a company such as CSP 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 CSPI split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 2662 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into CSP shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of CSPI, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete CSPI split history.
