Explanation:

A stock split is conducted by companies to make investors have additional share(s) for each share they already own. One of the reasons why a company would do this is to make each share less expensive especially if it has realized that similar shares in the industry are selling at a price significantly lower that its own shares. However, it is important to note that the value of each investor's holding remains the same.

In this case, a 2-for-1 stock split means that an investor who has 1 share will now have 2 shares. However, the cumulative value of these shares is equal to the 1 share each held before the split, so is the dividend.

If dividend for 1 share = $0.10 in dividend

with a 2-for-1 stock split, each share should earn a minimum dividend of (0.10 /2 = $0.05) to avoid sending bad signals to investors
