When a company such as LMCA 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 LMCA split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 5389.31754402 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into LMCA shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of LMCA, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete LMCA split history.
