At this point, you may wonder what happens when a company has attempted to issue more shares than it has authorized. Make sure this doesn't happen! If it does occur, a company has breached any agreement with those investors, employees or other parties that have been “issued” the excess shares.
10 to 15 million is a commonly used range (we set 10 million as default for the Cooley GO Docs Incorporation Package). “Issued and outstanding shares” refers to the number of shares that have been issued and are outstanding at a given time. This number cannot be greater than the number of authorized shares.
Share capital consists of all funds raised by a company in exchange for shares of either common or preferred stock. Authorized share capital is the maximum amount of share capital that a company is authorized to raise. Issued share capital is the total value of shares that a company elects to sell.
Authorised Share Capital is the shares of the company in total. It is the maximum number of shares that a company may issue ing to its Memorandum and Articles of Association. These shares may have been issued or not. The Issued Share Capital is the Share Capital which is owned by the Shareholders.
Issued shares are those shares which the board of directors and/or shareholders have agreed to issue, and which have been issued. Issued shares are the sum of outstanding shares held by shareholders; and treasury shares are shares which had been issued but have been repurchased by the corporation.
Authorized shares are the total number of shares a company can legally issue, while issued shares are the number the company has issued to date. The number of authorized and issued shares may be the same or different, in which case there would be more authorized than issued shares.
