Yum Brands (YUM) has 3 splits in our Yum Brands stock split history database. The first split for YUM took place on June 18, 2002. This was a 2 for 1 split, meaning for each share of YUM owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 1000 share position pre-split, became a 2000 share position following the split. YUM's second split took place on June 27, 2007. This was a 2 for 1 split, meaning for each share of YUM owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 2 shares. For example, a 2000 share position pre-split, became a 4000 share position following the split. YUM's third split took place on November 01, 2016. This was a 1391 for 1000 split, meaning for each 1000 shares of YUM owned pre-split, the shareholder now owned 1391 shares. For example, a 4000 share position pre-split, became a 5564 share position following the split.
When a company such as Yum Brands 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 Yum Brands stock split history from start to finish, an original position size of 1000 shares would have turned into 5564 today. Below, we examine the compound annual growth rate — CAGR for short — of an investment into Yum Brands shares, starting with a $10,000 purchase of YUM, presented on a split-history-adjusted basis factoring in the complete Yum Brands stock split history.
