Stock Split Calculator

The Stock Split Calculator helps investors understand the impact of a stock split on their holdings. By entering the original number of shares, original price per share, and the split ratio (e.g., 2-for-1 or 3-for-2), you can see how your share count and share price will adjust post-split, while your total investment value remains unchanged.
