Ziff Davis (ZD) has 1 split in our ZD split history database. The split for ZD took place on October 08, 2021. This was a 115 for 100 split, meaning for each 100 shares of ZD owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 115 shares. For example, a 1000 share position pre-split, became a 1150 share position following the split.
When a company such as Ziff Davis 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 ZD split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 1150 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into Ziff Davis shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of ZD, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete ZD split history.
