NEUTRAL IMPACT
Volcon's 1-for-5 reverse stock split will reduce the number of outstanding shares from 33.55 million to 6.71 million. This could potentially increase the stock's price, but it may also indicate underlying issues with the company's performance.
A reverse stock split reduces the number of shares in circulation, which can increase the price per share. However, companies often resort to this strategy when they are struggling to maintain minimum bid price requirements. Therefore, while the stock price may increase in the short term, it could also be a sign of underlying issues with the company's performance.
