What this tool does

Calculate stock split from your own entered figures. A split changes share count and per-share price only; exchanges may round fractional shares to cash in lieu, which this ignores.

How to use the Stock Split Calculator

  1. Enter or select shares held before the split.
  2. Enter or select price per share before the split.
  3. Enter or select split numerator (new shares).
  4. Enter or select split denominator (old shares).
  5. Read the calculated result; change any measurement to compare alternatives.

Formula

new shares = shares × numerator/denominator; new price = price × denominator/numerator (a 2-for-1 split is 2/1; a 1-for-5 reverse split is 1/5)
