Assume you have 100 shares worth $100 per share. If the stock splits 2 for 1, you will have 200 shares worth $50 per share. In both cases, you have $10,000, so the split itself has no value. The hope is that at $50 per share more people will be able to afford to buy than at $100 per share. More buyers may mean that the future price will be higher. This is a wish, not a guarantee. Never buy just due to a split. Always consider if the stock is attractive after the split as if it never split.
This management principle, also known undervalue based management, states that management should first and foremost consider the interests of shareholders in its business decisions. Although this is built into the legal premise of a publicly traded company, this concept is usually highlighted in opposition to alleged examples of CEO's and other management actions which enrich themselves at the expense of shareholders. Examples of this include acquisitions which are dilutive to shareholders, that is, they may cause the combined company to have twice the profits for example but these might have to be split amongst three times the shareholders.
