​(Round to three decimal​ places.)

Solution

To calculate the dilution caused by a stock offer, we need to know the initial and new number of shares outstanding. Let me break down the dilution formula for you:

The dilution percentage is calculated as:

Dilution=(New Shares IssuedTotal Shares After Offer)×100\text{Dilution} = \left( \frac{\text{New Shares Issued}}{\text{Total Shares After Offer}} \right) \times 100

Where:

  • New Shares Issued is the number of shares offered in the new stock issuance.
  • Total Shares After Offer is the sum of the initial shares outstanding plus the new shares issued.

To give a detailed answer, please provide:

  1. The number of shares initially outstanding.
  2. The number of shares issued in the first offer and in any other offer.

Once we have those, we can calculate the dilution percentage.

Do you have those numbers? If so, I can guide you through the solution.
