Stock Split financial
"approved the split of all common shares issued by the Company at a ratio of 1:5"
A stock split increases the number of a company's shares by dividing each existing share into multiple new shares while reducing the price per share by the same proportion, so an investor's total value and ownership percentage stay the same. It matters because lower per-share prices can make trading easier and attract more buyers, similar to breaking a large chocolate bar into smaller pieces to make it easier to share, which can boost liquidity and market interest.
