I feel like you're confusing a stock split with a stock offering. A stock split is when all share holders get 5 shares for every 1 they had (or a 7:1, or even 2:1). If I have 10% of a company with 10,000 shares, I'll still have 10% equity of the company with my (now) 70,000 shares.
Stock splits are typically a precursor to dividend (or increase in dividends). I don't remember the exact study but the price of a stock goes up after a split because the market takes the split as a "positive signal" for dividend increase.
Before, you had 100 shares at $250, or $25000. After, you have 500 shares at $50 - or $25000. But now it's a lot easier for other retail investors to throw in $5000 and buy a board lot themselves. So, naively, one might think the stock split is bullish for the stock.
My understanding is that if I buy 20 shares at around 120, OR if I buy a whole stock at full value before the split and it then split 20 - 1, over the long term, each of those 20 shares has the potential to increase back to its full value.
