RE:RE:Say WHAT!!!
RE:RE:Say WHAT!!! Well not to beat a dead horse but some definitions are so basic that everyone should try to understand them:
Definition of 'Dilution' A reduction in the ownership percentage of a share of stock caused by the issuance of new stock. Dilution can also occur when holders of stock options (such as company employees) or holders of other optionable securities exercise their options. When the number of shares outstanding increases, each existing stockholder will own a smaller, or diluted, percentage of the company, making each share less valuable. Dilution also reduces the value of existing shares by reducing the stock's earnings per share. |
