RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:hpqWhen the company needs money, that argument has some merits.
But with the options or warrants, you are getting dilution, likely on the cheap. If you needed money and were able to raise financing through equity, at such poing the terms of those could be less dilutionary to the shareholders.
As a sign of confidence, I prefer insiders to buy on the open market like the rest of us. No dilution and no discounts. Discounts, or effectively risk-free money does not require much conviction or courage.
