A 1-for-25 reverse split turns 10,000,000 shares at $50 into 400,000 shares at $1,250, an illustrative baseline used across this site, not a specific company's real share count. A 10,000-share position becomes 400 shares, with position value and ownership percentage unchanged by the split alone.
| Metric | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Shares outstanding | 10,000,000 | 400,000 |
| Your position (illustrative) | 10,000 | 400 |
| Price per share (illustrative) | $50 | $1,250 |

How the ratio works
1-for-25 means 1 new share for every 25 old shares. Because the numerator is smaller than the denominator, the share count falls and the mechanical price rises by the same factor. The invariant to check: shares times price should be the same before and after, aside from rounding.
A split changes units, not value. Ownership dilution comes from new share issuance (an offering, warrant exercise, or ATM program), which this calculator models separately.
