Reverse splits are possible as well though not as common as regular splits. In a reverse split, the number of outstanding shares decreases but the value still remains the same. So if there were a 2-1 reverse split for a company that had two million shares at 10 dollars a share, afterwards there would be a total of one million shares at 20 dollars for each share. A company would authorize a reverse split if they wanted to increase the price of their stock to attract more investors.
