RE:RE:RE:Please explainThanks for that peterj99. Gotta be clear about our definitions. How do you define diluted shares? I take it to mean outstanding shares plus options, warrants or any legal claims on shares. Like a company could buy back shares on the open market and not take them out of the outstanding share amount by retiring them. They'd put them in their company's treasury to cover options and other claims on shares. If they don't cover options etc with shares from the company's treasury then where do the shares come from to cover options etc claims? Do they simply issue more shares thereby diluting the sp of the existing shares?
