RE: Dilution?22 Jul 2020 21:00
If there are 100 shares in a company and you own 2 of them, you own 2 percent of the company.
If the company then doubles the number of shares in issue, you still own 2 shares, but there are twice as many in circulation. You now hold one percent of the company. This is dilution.
you hold two shares in a company and the average waited price is 5.5p the company has a value of 11p or each share 5.5p x 2
the company then issues two more shares and raises 5.5p per share giving the company 11p and the share still trades above or at that issue price ...
we now have 4 shares ................. but the company has now a Mcap of 22p ......
no party has suffered a loss ..............
