A share consolidation is the opposite to a share split or bonus issue, consisting of the replacement of the shares with a smaller number of shares with a higher face value.

There is no change to the issuer’s market capitalisation, so in a one-for-two consolidation a shareholder would receive half the number of shares but the share price (as well as the face value) would be twice as great.
