    The number of common shares outstanding after stock-split is 6029.66 million

    A 7-1 stock split implies that for every share that a shareholder has previously, he gets 7 now.

    As a result, the total outstanding common shares now would the previous common shares multiplied by 7.

    Hence the new outstanding common shares = 861.38 million*7=6029.66 million
