Waste Connections Inc (WCN) Stock Split History

Waste Connections Inc has split its stock 4 times since its initial public offering (IPO).

The most recent stock split took place on June 19, 2017 on a 3-for-2 basis.

These splits have increased WCN stock's liquidity and made it more appealing to a larger group of investors. However, it's important to remember that these actions only change the number of shares and the price per share with no impact on Waste Connections Inc's total market capitalization.

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