Issued shares and Outstanding Shares • Shares that have been issued by the company; shares that have been issued by the company and are held by investors. Authorized Share Capital • The maximum number of shares that the company is permitted to issue without additional shareholder approval.
- 10. 14 - 10 Equity Terminology: Example Imagine a firm has 100 million shares currently trading on the NYSE. The firm issues 20 million new shares, and repurchases 5 million shares one month later. What is the total change in treasury stock? What is the total change in the number of issued shares? What is the total change the number of shares outstanding?

- 21. 14 - 21 Debt Characteristics Funded and Unfunded Debt • Debt with more than 1 year remaining to maturity; debt due in less than one year. Sinking Fund • A fund established to retire debt before maturity. Callable Bond • A bond that may be repurchased by a firm before maturity at a specified call price.

- Unlike in product markets, there are few protected niches in financial markets. Example: You can’t patent the design of a new security. Financial markets are highly efficient and securities generally sell for their true values: True value – a price that incorporates all the information currently available to investors
- Internally generated funds – Cash reinvested in the firm: depreciation plus earnings not paid out as dividends.
- Just as with most firms, FedEx’s largest source of cash by far came from internally generated funds.
- The announcement of a new equity issue is usually bad news for investors. Can be perceived as an attempt by management to sell overpriced stock. Raising capital internally avoids the costs and bad omens associated with new equity issues.
- Financial Deficit – The difference between the cash a company needs and the amount generated internally. To fix this deficit, firms either issue new equity or issue new debt.
- Treasury Stock –Stock that has been repurchased by the company and held in its treasury. Issued Shares – Shares that have been issued by the company. Outstanding Shares – Shares that have been issued by the company and are held by investors. Authorized Share Capital – Maximum number of shares that the company is permitted to issue without additional shareholder approval.
- Par Value – Value of security shown in the company’s accounts. Note: par value has little economic significance. Additional Paid-in Capital – Difference between issue price and par value of stock. Also called capital surplus Retained Earnings – Earnings not paid out as dividends.
- Net common equity - represents the total amount contributed directly by shareholders when the firm issued new stock, and indirectly when it plowed back part of its earnings.
- Profits: The shareholders are entitled to whatever profits are left over after the lenders have received their dues. A portion of profits are usually paid out in dividends and the rest is plowed back into the firm. Plowed back profits should allow the company to earn higher profits and pay higher dividends in the future. Control of the firm: Shareholders retain all residual rights of control over the operation of the firm
- Majority Voting – Voting system in which each director is voted on separately. Most companies use a system of majority voting. Cumulative Voting – Voting system in which all votes that one shareholder is allowed to cast can be cast for one candidate for the board of directors. Proxy Contest – Takeover attempt in which outsiders compete with management for shareholders’ votes. Note: Corporations sometimes issue multiple classes of common stock, some with different voting rights than others.
- Preferred Stock – Stock that takes priority over common stock in regards to dividends. Net Worth – Book value of common stockholders’ equity plus preferred stock. Advantages: Dividends – Preferred stock dividends must be paid to shareholders before common shareholders can receive anything. Tax Advantages – If one corporation buys another’s stock, only 30% of the dividends it receives is taxable. Disadvantages: Interest rate fluctuations – As interest rates rise, the present value of the preferred securities falls. This problem is solved with floating-rate preferred shares. Floating-Rate Preferred – Preferred stock paying dividends that vary with short-term interest rates.
- Limited Liability – The promise to repay a firm’s debt is not always kept. The company has the right to default on the debt and to hand over the assets to the firm’s lenders.
- A bond’s interest payment, its coupon, is usually fixed at time of issue. The present value of the bond changes with fluctuations in the interest rate. A zero coupon bond pays no regular payments; it simply makes a single payment at maturity. Most loans carry a floating interest rate, usually tied to the prime rate or the LIBOR. Prime Rate – Benchmark interest rate charged by banks. LIBOR – London Interbank Offered Rate; the rate at which international banks lend to one another.
- Funded Debt – Debt with more than 1 year remaining to maturity Unfunded Debt – Debt due in less than one year. Carried on the balance sheet as a current liability. Sinking Fund – Fund established to retire debt before maturity. When a sinking fund exists, investors are prepared to lend at a lower rate of interest. Callable Bond – Bond that may be repurchased by a firm before maturity at a specified call price.
- In the event of default, a subordinated lender gets repaid only after the firm’s general creditors are paid. Subordinated Debt – Debt that may be repaid in bankruptcy only after senior debt is paid. If a loan is backed by collateral (assets held as security for a loan), the loan is said to be secured. Secured Debt – Debt that has first claim on specified collateral in the event of default. Financial markets know few national boundaries; many U.S. firms often borrow abroad. Eurodollars – Dollars held on deposit in a bank outside the United States. Eurobond – Bond that is marketed internationally.
- Public vs. Private Placements: Publicly issued bonds are sold to anyone who wishes to buy, and are resold and traded in securities markets. Private Placement – Sale of securities to a limited number of investors without a public offering. Bondholders sometimes place restrictions on the company to prohibit it from taking unreasonable risks. Protective Covenant – Restriction on a firm to protect bondholders. Lease – Long-term rental agreement.
- Warrant – Right to buy shares from a company at a stipulated price before a set date. Convertible Bond – Bond that the holder may exchange for a specified amount of another security.
