Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock is a hot topic on Friday after the company announced that it’s going to be splitting its shares next month.

Let’s get into everything investors need to know about that upcoming NVDA stock split below!

NVDA Stock Split Details

  • Nvidia will enact a 10-for-1 stock split for its shares.
  • That split is set to go into effect after markets close on June 7, 2024.
  • This will result in shares starting to trade on a split-adjusted basis on June 10, 2024.
  • The company is introducing an amendment to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation to allow for the split.
  • When it goes into effect, shareholders will receive an additional nine shares of NVDA stock.
  • This will also result in a proportionate increase to the number of authorized shares available.
  • Nvidia is also increasing its quarterly cash dividend by 150%, which will be equivalent to 1 cent per share after the split.

Nvidia is likely hoping to attract more investors with this stock split. Currently, its shares are trading for more than $1,000 each. That high price can make it difficult for new traders to take a stake in the company. Lowering the price through a split alleviates this problem.

NVDA stock is up slightly as of Friday morning and up 117.1% since the start of the year.
