Ich streite natürlich den negativen Touch eines notwendigen resplits nicht ab. Ist aber zum Überleben dennoch erstmal wichtig.
"Reverse Stock Split by a Troubled Company to Avoid Delisting http://www.thechairmansblog.com/...ha/reverse-stock-splits-uplisting/ Once listed on a senior exchange (NASDAQ or NYSE), companies must comply with a number of qualitative and quantitative listing requirements in order to maintain that listing. One such rule is a minimum price requirement: companies that fall under the threshold risk losing their listed status.
A company facing delisting due to the failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement has a few options to consider. One option is a reverse split, which is used to avoid the negative market perception of losing their listing.
An investor who has witnessed a company’s share price drop below the minimum listing requirement knows it is often a signal that the company is in trouble. In this case, implementing a reverse stock split to maintain its senior exchange listing can maintain the listing price, but does nothing to address any of the issues underlying the stock price decline.
A company receiving a stock exchange deficiency must make a public announcement to this effect, so it is no surprise that there is generally a negative market perception of a reverse stock split for this purpose." |
