Navitas Semiconductor is a company that designs and manufactures high-performance analog semiconductors for power management and sensing applications in various markets such as automotive, industrial, medical, and consumer electronics.

On August 19, 2021, Navitas Semiconductor announced that its board of directors had approved a 1-for-5 reverse stock split, which would reduce the number of outstanding shares by 50%. The reverse stock split was intended to increase the liquidity of the company's common stock and make it more attractive to investors.

As part of the reverse stock split, the company also lowered its price-to-earnings ratio (P/E ratio) from approximately 120x to around 24x. The P/E ratio is a valuation metric that compares a company's stock price to its earnings per share. A lower P/E ratio generally indicates that the stock is undervalued relative to its earnings, while a higher P/E ratio suggests that the stock may be overvalued.

The reverse stock split and lowering of the P/E ratio were not directly related to any specific news or developments at Navitas Semiconductor. However, they may have been influenced by broader market trends and investor sentiment towards the company's industry and competitors.
