Westlake Corporation (WLK) Stock Split History

Westlake Corporation has split its stock 2 times since its initial public offering (IPO). The first stock split occurred on February 26, 2014 with the ratio of 2-for-1, meaning that for 1 share of WLK owned pre-split, shareholders then owned 2 shares. The most recent stock split took place on March 19, 2014 on a 2-for-1 basis.

These actions have increased WLK 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 change the number of shares and the price per share with no impact on Westlake Corporation's total market capitalization.

Will Westlake Corporation Stock Split in 2024?

The answer will depend on the decisions of the company's managers and market volatility. Westlake 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 WLK stock prices become too high or too low for retail investors. Therefore, the ultimate decisions will certainly be made by Westlake Corporation's board of directors. Typically, no action is taken until its price per share reaches a specific threshold.
