A reverse stock split reduces the number of issued shares but not the number of authorized shares. With a reverse stock split, you end up owning fewer shares but each share is worth more that the original. For example, if you own 1,000 shares of a stock priced at $50 a share, your position is worth $50,000. If the board of directors institutes a 1-for-5 reverse split, you will receive one share of stock for every five shares you own. You end up owning 200 shares (1,000 divided by five) worth $250 each ($50 multiplied by five.) Your position value of $50,000 is unchanged.
A reverse split can signal that a company is financially strong enough to be listed on an exchange. The stock price will increase enough to meet the exchange’s minimum price requirement. If you own stock in a small company that has seen increased sales and profits, the stock price should continue to rise after the reverse split. Stocks newly listed on an exchange can attract new buyers, especially institutional investors who avoid over-the-counter and pink sheets stocks. Although you will end up owning fewer shares, they will be worth more as the price continues to rise.
