Reverse stock splits are often used by companies to increase their share price to comply with stock exchange listing requirements or to make the stock more attractive to investors. While this can lead to a temporary increase in share price due to a perceived increase in value, it does not change the company's market capitalization and may be viewed as a negative signal about the company's performance or outlook. Investors will need to assess whether the reverse split is a strategic move for compliance and attractiveness or a sign of deeper financial issues.
