INT (INT) has 4 splits in our INT split history database. The first split for INT took place on June 28, 1995. This was a 3 for 2
split, meaning for each 2
shares of INT 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. INT's second split took place on December 01, 1997. This was a 3 for 2
split, meaning for each 2
shares of INT owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 3 shares. For example, a 1500 share position pre-split, became a 2250 share position following the split. INT's third split took place on February 16, 2005. This was a 2 for 1 split, meaning for each share of INT owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 2250 share position pre-split, became a 4500 share position following the split. INT's 4th split took place on December 08, 2009. This was a 2 for 1 split, meaning for each share of INT owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 4500 share position pre-split, became a 9000 share position following the split.
When a company such as INT 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 INT split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 9000 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into INT shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of INT, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete INT split history.
