According to Odaily, Japanese publicly traded company Metaplanet has announced a 10-for-1 stock split, effective April 1, 2025. This decision aims to reduce the trading cost per share and increase market liquidity. The move follows a significant rise in Metaplanet's stock price, which had raised the minimum investment cost for retail investors. The stock split will apply to shareholders registered by March 31, converting each existing share into ten new shares. This will increase the total number of issued shares from approximately 39.1 million to 391.6 million. The company stated that this initiative is intended to lower the unit price for investors, thereby enhancing market participation.
