Common questions

Powered by AI

A quasi-reorganization allows a financially distressed corporation to restructure its accounts without formal bankruptcy proceedings by revaluing assets and liabilities to present values and eliminating deficits through adjustments to equity. This provides a fresh start financially, improving creditworthiness and investor confidence. However, this process may require BOD approval and legal compliance to ensure that creditor rights are safeguarded and future profitability aligns with restructured financials .

Legal capital, representing the par or stated value of issued shares, protects creditors by ensuring that a portion of the equity is not distributed as dividends. Legal capital impacts financial strategies by mandating the retention of a minimum equity buffer, thereby influencing dividend payouts and equity restructurings. For instance, evaluating the legality of capital transactions such as stock issuances or buybacks would ensure compliance with regulations and maintain minimum capital reserves .

Issuing preference shares augments a corporation's equity structure by adding a class of shares with distinct characteristics, such as fixed dividends and prioritized claims on earnings and assets over ordinary shares, appealing to conservative investors. This issuance impacts the equity structure by increasing capital with preferential terms, thus potentially diversifying the investor base and stabilizing the dividend payout despite financial volatility. Preference share attributes like convertibility can enhance equity appeal and flexibility in capital structure adjustments .

The number of outstanding shares is determined by adjusting the issued shares with any treasury shares that the corporation holds. For example, if a corporation issued 400,000 ordinary shares and subsequently acquired 50,000 as treasury shares while issuing an additional 300,000 ordinary shares, the total outstanding shares would be calculated by deducting the treasury shares from the total issued shares, which results in 650,000 outstanding shares at year-end .

Cash dividends declared reduce the Retained Earnings immediately upon declaration and decrease total shareholders' equity upon payment. Stock dividends, instead, redistribute portions of retained earnings into paid-in capital accounts, and do not affect the total amount of shareholders' equity but impact its composition. For example, a 10% stock dividend on ordinary shares recalculates within equity without changing total shareholders' equity, whereas cash dividend payout reduces retained earnings and lowers total equity .

Share subscriptions, when received, result in a credit to Subscribed Ordinary Share Capital for the amount equivalent to the par value of shares subscribed, and a credit to Share Premium if the subscription price exceeds the par value. For example, if 400 shares are subscribed at P23 with P20 par value, the increase in Subscribed Ordinary Share Capital is P8,000 and Share Premium is P1,200, reflecting the excess over par value .

Acquiring treasury shares decreases the corporation's equity as it involves a cash outflow with the purchase price exceeding the par value, which restricts Retained Earnings. For instance, if 200 shares are acquired at P120 per share and later additional shares are acquired at P125, this restricts Retained Earnings because the treasury shares are shown as a reduction in total equity. The resale of these shares at a higher premium, such as selling at P30,000 from an acquisition price of P20,000, increases the equity by crediting the treasury share premium account by the difference, reflecting the gain upon resale .

Corporations can utilize stock options in executive compensation packages to align executives' interests with shareholders by providing incentives for stock price appreciation. By granting options to purchase shares at a predetermined price, corporations motivate executives to enhance company performance and share value. This not only potentially increases equity value but also limits upfront cash compensation expenses, enabling capital retention for operational growth and strategic initiatives. However, careful structuring is necessary to mitigate excessive risk-taking and ensure compliance with financial regulations and shareholder disclosures .

A share split does not change the overall equity but alters the composition of share capital by increasing the number of shares and reducing the par value proportionally. This has no direct impact on shareholders' equity immediately but can influence market perception by making shares appear more affordable, potentially enhancing liquidity. For example, a 5-for-1 share split reduces the par value from P10 to P2 per share while increasing shares fivefold without affecting the total share capital value .

Property dividends, involving the distribution of non-cash assets like goods or property, allow corporations to preserve cash while rewarding shareholders. Benefits include liquidity preservation and balance sheet management flexibility. Challenges comprise potential valuation complexities and market liquidity issues for distributed assets, complicating shareholders’ ability to convert these dividends into cash readily. This type of dividend could also have tax implications depending on jurisdiction, potentially affecting both corporate and shareholder tax positions .
