Got margin?

One benefit of a higher trading price is moving away from the minimum margin requirement.

There are several reasons for larger companies to conduct reverse stock splits.

One of them is to draw institutional investors because some cannot buy stocks less than $10 per share.

Stock transfer fees paid by the company go down. As a stockholder, would you like to pay fees on 200,000 shares changing hands on a given day or 50,000?

Investors need to think about reverse splits like pizza. Does it really matter how many slices there are if you eat the entire thing? With stocks, you still own the same proportion of the business. There are just fewer slices and the pieces are bigger.
