Key Points
-
In 2025, three non-tech companies have completed forward stock splits, with Meta Platforms potentially announcing its split soon.
-
Retail investors hold over 27% of Meta’s outstanding shares, which may incentivize a split to lower share prices, currently above $700.
-
O’Reilly Automotive saw a 15-for-1 split, Interactive Brokers conducted a 4-for-1 split, and Fastenal executed a 2-for-1 split in 2025.
As of July 30, 2025, only three prominent companies, none from the tech sector, have announced stock splits. O’Reilly Automotive’s split was the first, followed by Interactive Brokers and Fastenal. Retail investors are particularly eager for a split from Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META), which could further boost its accessible stock ownership given its high per-share price.
