On April 2, 2026, Booking Holdings Inc. (the "Company") filed an amendment to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State. This amendment implements a previously announced twenty-five-for-one forward stock split of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, it proportionately increases the number of shares of the Company’s authorized common stock from 1,000,000,000 to 25,000,000,000. The amendment became effective at 4:01 p.m. Eastern Time on the same day, and trading is expected to commence on a split-adjusted basis at market open on Monday, April 6, 2026. This strategic move is anticipated to enhance liquidity and make the stock more accessible to a broader range of investors, potentially leading to increased trading volume and interest in the Company’s shares. The decision to increase the authorized shares also provides the Company with greater flexibility for future financing and growth opportunities. Overall, this stock split and increase in authorized shares are seen as positive developments for Booking Holdings, reflecting a strong outlook for the Company’s future performance.
