RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:313,000,343 Fully-diluted I don't want to argue with you anymore, I know what a share dilution is.
You just said it yourself! More shares = more earnings being spread out. Funds raised from dilution does not increase earnings per share, it decreases it. Funds raised from share dilution is an asset. It hurts earnings per share because more shares are out. Less dividens spread out and less earnigns per share. Earnings per share is decreased right away. They only way it won't is "if" the company earns more money due to using the funds well.
All companies must show the number of shares they have out, number of warrants, etc. why?
60 million more potential shares out that can be bought in a a much cheaper price than you, me and other investors bought in at. This is scary, they sneak in at a cheaper price, decreasing EPS but increasing assets. With same dividen benefits and the chance to sell their shares at immediate profit. They can leave right away, but how much longer does the common shareholders have to wait to see the company utilize it's asset?
Share dilution does hurt EPS right away, but increases asset. Can it increase EPS in the long run, yes! Well, debt can as well. How long? 1 year to build the facility, how much longer until it becomes legal? Too long for most "shorters", which they will just sell and leave, "thank you very much!".
All COMA stock owners would rather have debt right about now. So their equity does not get hurt, EPS, if they decide to take the profits out of the company.
