Marathon Oil Corporation (MRO) Stock Split History

Marathon Oil Corporation has split its stock once since its initial public offering (IPO). The stock split of Marathon Oil Corporation occurred on June 19, 2007 on a 2-for-1 basis, meaning that for 1 share of MRO owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares.

This action has increased the stock's liquidity and made it more appealing to a larger group of investors. However, it's important to remember that a stock split only changes the number of shares and the price per share with no impact on Marathon Oil Corporation's total market capitalization.

The answer will depend on the decisions of the company's managers and market volatility. Marathon Oil Corporation has not made an official announcement regarding whether it will enact a stock split or reverse stock split, but it has a history of doing so when MRO stock prices become too high or too low for retail investors. Therefore, the ultimate decisions will certainly be made by Marathon Oil Corporation's board of directors. Typically, no action is taken until its price per share reaches a specific threshold.
