Powell Industries Announces Three-For-One Stock Split

HOUSTON, March 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Powell Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: POWL) announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a three-for-one forward stock split of the Company’s common stock. The Board of Directors also approved a proportionate increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock to accommodate the stock split. The split will be effected through an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. Each shareholder of record as of the close of trading on March 20, 2026 (the “record date”) will receive, after the close of trading on April 2, 2026, two additional shares for every one share held on the record date. Subject to final approval by the Nasdaq, trading is expected to begin on a split-adjusted basis at market open on April 6, 2026. 

Brett A. Cope, Powell’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our Board’s decision to approve this stock split reflects our continued strong performance and confidence in our growth outlook. We believe that the split will improve accessibility to our stock for both current and prospective investors, as well as support liquidity in our shares.”

The Company expects that the stock split will increase the number of shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock from approximately 12.1 million shares to approximately 36.4 million shares. As a result of the stock split, proportionate adjustments will be made to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the Company’s outstanding stock awards, the number of shares issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans and other existing agreements and the Company’s common stock dividend. The Company anticipates filing a Form 8-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission after the effective date to report an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation effecting the stock split and reflecting a proportionate adjustment to the total number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock.
