  kong73 Capital reduction is the process of decreasing a company's shareholder equity through share cancellations and share repurchases, also known as share buybacks. The reduction of capital is done by companies for numerous reasons, including increasing shareholder value and producing a more efficient capital structure. Understanding Capital Reduction After a capital reduction, the number of shares in the company will decrease by the reduction amount. While the company's market capitalization will not change as a result of such a move, the float, or number of shares outstanding and available to trade, will be reduced. The act of capital reduction may also be enacted in response to a decline in a company's operating profits or a revenue loss that cannot be recovered from a company's expected future earnings. In some capital reductions, shareholders will receive a cash payment for shares canceled, but in most other situations, there is minimal impact on shareholders. A company is required to reduce its share capital using a set of specific steps. First, a notice must be sent out to creditors of the resolution of the capital reduction. Second, the company has to then submit an application for entry of the reduction of share capital no earlier than three months after publication of the initial notice. Share capital reduction is then expected to be paid to shareholders no earlier than three months after the entry of reduction in the commercial register. Example of Capital Reduction Many companies decide to reduce capital through repurchase agreements (buybacks). For example, Sirius XM Radio, an American broadcasting company that provides ad-free satellite radio services, announced on January 29, 2019 that its Board of Directors had approved an additional $2 billion common stock repurchase. The additional $2 billion repurchase in 2019 will bring the company's buyback authorizations to $14 billion in total since 2013. Sirius XM will fund the repurchase through cash on hand, future cash flow from operations, and future borrowings. 09/11/2021 6:57 AM  Undi_PH Parkson proposes RM2b share capital reduction to reduce losses Seah Eu Hen / theedgemarkets.com November 08, 2021 21:41 pm +08 -A+A KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 8): Parkson Holdings Bhd has proposed to cancel RM2 billion of its issued share capital in a move to reduce the group's accumulated losses. According to a bourse filing on Monday, the group is in the red as accumulated losses amounted to RM932.47 million as at June 30, 2021. The group expects to return to the black with retained earnings of RM1.05 billion after the capital reduction exercise. After the exercise is completed, its issued share capital will be reduced to RM2.15 billion from RM4.15 billion. Parkson said that the exercise will allow the company and group to rationalise their financial positions by reducing their accumulated losses through the reduction of its share capital which is lost or unrepresented by available assets of the group while reflecting a more accurate picture of the value of its underlying assets and financial position. The reduction of accumulated losses from the exercise is expected to enhance the credibility of the company with the bankers, customers, suppliers, investors and other stakeholders according to the retail group. The proposal, subject to shareholders' approval, is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2022. Parkson's share price was flat at 22 sen on Monday, valuing the group at RM240.66 million.

That means each existing share represents a smaller percentage of ownership, making the shares less valuable. 09/11/2021 11:15 AM kong73 After a capital reduction, the number of shares in the company will decrease by the reduction amount.

In particular, a company may do so by cancelling or reducing the liability on partly paid shares, repaying any paid-up share capital in excess of the company's wants, or cancelling any paid-up share capital that is lost or unrepresented by available assets. 09/11/2021 11:30 AM CartoonInvesting so of different from share consolidation. any different from the number of share we buy? 09/11/2021 12:12 PM kelvin61 Basically the reduction is coming from the share premium account before it was merged to the issued capital.
