Posted at 30/4/2025 07:32 by heatseek77 London-listed companies have benefited from share consolidations (also called reverse stock splits), but the outcome depends heavily on the company's fundamentals and market conditions. Share consolidations are often seen as cosmetic changes, but they can improve investor perception and bring tangible benefits in specific cases.Notable Examples Where Share Consolidation Helped: 1. Barclays (2006) Consolidation: 4-for-1 share consolidation. Purpose: To reduce share count after rights issues and keep the share price within a typical trading range. Outcome: Helped tidy up the capital structure and maintain institutional investor appeal. Barclays went on to perform relatively well afterward, though macroeconomic conditions played a large role. 2. Vodafone (2014) Consolidation: 6-for-11 share consolidation. Context: Following the sale of its stake in Verizon Wireless. Outcome: The consolidation was part of a broader capital return plan. While the move didn't directly boost the share price, it was well-received by markets and part of a strategic repositioning that improved investor sentiment. 3. Royal Bank of Scotland (Now NatWest Group) (2012) Consolidation: 1-for-10 share consolidation. Goal: To boost the price per share after dilution from bailouts and rights issues. Outcome: While the bank's long-term recovery was complex, the consolidation helped it maintain its listing and reduce speculative trading due to its low share price. |

Outcome: While the bank's long-term recovery was complex, the consolidation helped it maintain its listing and reduce speculative trading due to its low share price. Potential Benefits of Share Consolidation: Improved Perception: Higher share price may attract institutional investors or funds with minimum price thresholds. Reduced Volatility: Higher-priced shares can reduce short-term speculative trading. Regulatory Compliance: Helps maintain a minimum share price required for exchange listing rules. Caveat: If the underlying business is weak, a share consolidation won’t fix fundamental problems and can even be viewed negatively (e.g., a signal of distress). Some AIM-listed companies have done consolidations with no long-term benefit. |
Posted at 29/4/2025 15:41 by heatseek77 From LSE but interesting....Certainly! Let's examine several notable examples of companies that have undergone reverse stock splits and analyze how their share prices performed afterward. These cases illustrate that the outcomes of reverse splits can vary significantly, depending on the company's underlying fundamentals and strategic actions. 📈 Successful Reverse Stock Splits 1. General Electric (GE) – 2021 Split Ratio: 1-for-8 Purpose: Simplify capital structure and elevate share price Outcome: Post-split, GE's share price increased from approximately $13 to over $100. As of April 29, 2025, GE trades at $202.10, reflecting a positive trajectory following the split. 2. Citigroup (C) – 2011 Split Ratio: 1-for-10 Purpose: Boost share price and attract institutional investors Outcome: The split raised the stock price from around $4.50 to $45. Over time, Citigroup stabilized and became profitable again. As of April 29, 2025, Citigroup's stock trades at $68.66. 3. American International Group (AIG) – 2011 Split Ratio: 1-for-20 Purpose: Maintain NYSE listing and restore investor confidence post-2008 financial crisis Outcome: The reverse split helped AIG stabilize and repay its government bailout. As of April 29, 2025, AIG's stock is priced at $81.99. 4. Booking Holdings (formerly Priceline) – 2003 Split Ratio: 1-for-6 Purpose: Clean up share structure post-dot-com bubble Outcome: The higher share price post-split provided stability, aiding in the company's expansion. Booking Holdings has since become a leading online travel agency. 📉 Unsuccessful Reverse Stock Splits 1. WeWork – 2023 Split Ratio: 1-for-40 Purpose: Retain NYSE listing after shares fell below $1 Outcome: Despite the split, WeWork filed for bankruptcy protection a few months later, indicating deeper operational and financial issues. 2. 23andMe – 2024 Split Ratio: 1-for-20 Purpose: Address declining stock price and operational challenges Outcome: The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in March 2025, with the stock losing about 50% of its value on the news. 3. DryShips – 2016–2017 Split Activity: Executed eight reverse splits within 16 months Purpose: Attempt to stabilize share price amid financial struggles Outcome: Investors lost 99.99% of their investments during this period, highlighting the risks of repeated reverse splits without addressing underlying issues. 🔍 Key Takeaways Not a Cure-All: A reverse stock split is a cosmetic change and does not address underlying business challenges. Investor Perception: While a higher share price can attract institutional investors, it may also signal distress if not accompanied by operational improvements. Strategic Context Matters: Successful outcomes often involve comprehensive restructuring and a clear path to profitability, not just a share consolidation. If you're considering investing in a company that has recently undergone a reverse stock split, it's cruc Reply HHH81 Posts: 478 Price: 187.38 No Opinion RE: Ahhh, the dreaded consolidationToday 15:13 Share consolidations (also known as reverse stock splits) can have mixed implications for a company's future share price performance. Here's a breakdown of what they typically mean and whether they're "good": ✅ Potential Positives Improved Perception: Consolidating shares raises the share price (e.g., 10 shares at $1 become 1 share at $10), which can make the stock seem more "respectable" or appealing, especially to institutional investors. Exchange Requirements: It can help a company meet minimum price requirements to remain listed on exchanges like the NYSE or NASDAQ. Attractiveness to New Investors: Some investors avoid penny stocks due to perceived risk, so a higher price post-consolidation might broaden the investor base. ⚠️ Common Risks and Concerns Signal of Distress: Often, reverse splits are used by struggling companies. Investors may view the move as a red flag, suggesting the company is trying to cover up poor fundamentals. Poor Long-Term Performance: Historically, many companies that perform reverse splits continue to underperform afterward. A higher share price does not fix the underlying financial issues. Lower Liquidity: Fewer shares can mean lower trading volume, making the stock less liquid and potentially more volatile. 🧠 Key Takeaway A reverse split by itself does not improve the company’s value—it’ |
Posted at 29/4/2025 08:32 by diku One day penny share next day £ share...aabra ka daabra magic...not keen on share consolidation...buy more time...share price around 190p looks better than 14p...look at SAGA share price...it too did consolidation around 15p...last time I looked it was still trading around 8p old money if understood correctly... |
Posted at 04/4/2025 13:19 by feelthepain Normally I wouldn't bat an eyelid at a share consolidation. But in this case I think 15 to 1 is too much and as we are expecting to grow the share price I think it gives the wrong message. Almost a message that we are not expecting the share price to grow organically |
Posted at 02/4/2025 09:10 by trader4ever You cannot compare RR with CPI. RR is world class company run by world class very competent management, CPI is third class low level company which is dying every day, run by not very competent management. Until now we have received only talks and Promises from the new management nothing tangible delivered. Market does not seem have any confidence in AH and his team, No matter what they say or do Share price is not reflecting any of their actions. AH has already lost 40% share value since he joined. |
Posted at 18/3/2025 12:24 by 2trenners @heatseekUnlike RR (which is respected and watched by the city boys) - Capita is more of a play thing that can be easily manipulated to make astounding gains and losses at the whim of the MM. I don't think a lot of the IIs are interested in penny shares (like Capita) but I think a consolidation will bring CPI into much higher II visibility . I think the consolidation is being done partly on the advice of Richard Staverly at Rockwood. Whilst CPI languishes in the pennies it's far to easy to kick off a few 50,000 sell orders (costing small amounts of cash) and then the algobots panic and start selling and the share price crashes. Easy money for the shorters For that reason and for increased visibility to II I will definitely vote FOR consolidation as I think that is the point when the turn around will be complete! |
Posted at 16/3/2025 17:35 by 2trenners @superichShare consolidation of 15/1 was mentioned in the small print of year end results and also made it to a slide at Yellowstone presentation towards the middle of last week. I would assume consolidation would require a vote at the AGM but I would assume that's a formality. Really good to see the management team taking advice from IIs ... Specifically that the share is less likely to be traded like an AIM and more likely to be taken seriously / noticed by the MMs if the share price is in the £s rather than the pennies. Capita is a serious business providing a range of important services to millions of people every day .... You would never guess that if you looked at the way the share price was traded and thrown around (like a play thing) by the MMs. Share consolidation could be the inflection point for significant up movement for Capita as more IIs come on board and it becomes more difficult to influence rapid share price movement ... All in my opinion ... but consolidation looks good for the long suffering shareholders (like me) |
Posted at 18/2/2025 08:20 by trader4ever So far nothing is delivered by AH , all promises and lies, if these numbers have even 50% of possibility of achieving what He says than share price would not be sitting at 13p.Share price is the only realty check on AH performance |
Posted at 31/1/2025 11:04 by heatseek77 lamegorse23 ?? the million isn't showing on IG, can't see it on LSE either, if was on advfn could been either way as advfn trade reporting is dogpoo imghoCheers and ref JO The facts are that AH has taken over from a highly incompetent (aka useless) CEO. AH has been at the helm for a mere 12 months. In that time, he has turned the listing Capita ship around. AH has ariticulated a clear strategy, which is full of common sense and includes the complete play-book of steps to turn Capita around into a lean and profitatble business. I would never have invested in Capita under the previous CEO. However, I am very happy to remain a shareholder with AH and co at the helm. It is impossible for AH is turn the Capita ship around AND make it into a wizz-bang company after a mere 12 months. Impossible! AH has already turned around another LSE company (I mentioned this in one of my previous posts) and after AH completed the turnaround, it was bought out - and provided the shareholders with a very handsome profit. I see the same opportunity with Capita. I have no doubts that there are one or two private investment companies in the US who like outsourcing companies in the services sector - especially those who service the govt (i.e. guaranteed contracts, revenues etc) - who are watching the Capita story unfold over the last few months. Capita has over £5 billion in the sales pipeline (all AI and technology based) and this is GROWING all the time, at 6-8% profit margin. If Capita wins say £2 billion in new sales, based on the lowest profit margin of 6%, this equates to £120 million in profit on new sales alone. Never mind the £250 million on cost savings. Capita is a growth stock, pure and simple. The share price is circa 14p and it would not surprise me if the share price slowly climbs to circa 30-40p over the next 18-24 months as new sales and cost savings are achieved. Further the parts of Capita (demonstrated by the recent sale of Capita One) are worth far more that the whole of Capita. This is naturally very attractive to private investment companies. If a private investment company suddenly expresses interest in buying Capita , this share price will spike upwards in a massive way. If you are already invested, you win massively. If all this doesn't excite you as an investor, then I suggest you sell up now and invest in that slow and lumbering elephant of an investment BT. Any impatient investors ought to sell out now. Those investors who have been involved in turn-around companies will know to sit back and wait for - in Capita's case another 12-18 months, at which time the results will be there for all to see. IMO & DYOR |
