MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR) is set to execute a 10-for-1 stock split of its class A common stock and class B common stock “to make its stock more accessible to investors and employees.”
The stock split will be effected via a stock dividend to the holders of record of MicroStrategy’s class A common stock and class B common stock as of the close of business on August 1, 2024, the record date for the dividend. The stock dividend will not have any impact on the voting and other rights of stockholders.
