When a company issues a bond or preferred stock with detachable warrants, it's essentially issuing two separate securities: the bond (or preferred stock) and the warrant. From an accounting perspective, these two components must be separately recorded on the company's financial statements.
The easiest way to exercise a warrant is through your broker. When a warrant is exercised, the company issues new shares, increasing the total number of shares outstanding, which has a dilutive effect. Warrants can be bought and sold on the secondary market up until expiry.
Unlike detachable warrants, undetachable ones cannot be separated from their underlying securities. This means investors who hold these types of warrants must sell both the warrants and the underlying assets at the same time.
