The share split refers to a scenario when the company increases the number of shares in order to decrease the price per share.
Share Price after Stock Split = Share Price Before stock split * ( Number of share per lot before Stock split / Number of share per lot after stock split)
= 250 * ( 5 / (5+3))
= 250 * (5/8)
= $150
Total Number of shares = Number of share before split * ( Number of share per lot before Stock split / Number of share per lot after stock split)
= 50 * (( 5 / (5+3))
= 50 * (5/8)
= 83.5 Millions
Face Value = Face value per share before split * ( Number of share per lot before Stock split / Number of share per lot after stock split)
= 6 * (( 5 / (5+3))
= 3.75 Per share
