EQT (EQT) has 4 splits in our EQT stock split history database. The first split for EQT took place on January 26, 1993. This was a 3 for 2
split, meaning for each 2
shares of EQT owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 3 shares. For example, a 1000 share position pre-split, became a 1500 share position following the split. EQT's second split took place on June 12, 2001. This was a 2 for 1 split, meaning for each share of EQT owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 1500 share position pre-split, became a 3000 share position following the split. EQT's third split took place on September 02, 2005. This was a 2 for 1 split, meaning for each share of EQT owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 3000 share position pre-split, became a 6000 share position following the split. EQT's 4th split took place on November 13, 2018. This was a 1837 for 1000 split, meaning for each 1000 shares of EQT owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 1837 shares. For example, a 6000 share position pre-split, became a 11022 share position following the split.
When a company such as EQT 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 EQT stock split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 11022 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into EQT shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of EQT, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete EQT stock split history.
