by J Victor
WHAT ...Bonus shares – A positive sign.<br />by J Victor<br /><br />WHAT ARE THEY?<br /><br />Bonus shares are issued in a certain proportion to the existing holders. A 1 for 1 bonus would mean you get one additional shares — free of cost — for the one share you hold in the company.If you hold 100 shares of a company and a 1:1 bonus offer is declared, you get 100 shares free. That means your total holding of shares in that company will now be 200 instead of 100 at no cost to you.<br /><br />WHO BEARS THE COST IF IT’S FREE FOR ME?<br /><br />You are right. There is no free lunch.Bonus shares are issued by cashing in on the free reserves (accumulated profits) of the company.A company builds up its reserves by retaining part of its profit over the years (the part that is not paid out as dividend). After a while, these free reserves increase, and the company wanting to issue bonus shares converts part of the reserves into capital.So you do not pay; and the company’s profits are not impacted.<br /><br />WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF A BONUS ISSUE?<br /><br />Bonus shares do not directly affect a company’s performance. Bonus issue has following major effects.<br /><br />1. Share capital gets increased according to the bonus issue ratio.<br />2. Liquidity in the stock increases.<br />3. Effective Earnings per share, Book Value and other per share values stand reduced.<br />4. Markets take the action usually as a favorable act.<br />5. Accumulated profits get reduced.<br />6. A bonus issue is taken as a sign of the good health of the company.<br /><br />WILL THE SHARE PRICE CHANGE AFTER BONUS ISSUE?<br /><br />A bonus issue adds to the total number of shares in the market.Say a company had 250 million shares. Now, with a bonus issue of 1:1, there will be 250 million shares issues. So now, there will be 500 million shares.This is referred to as a dilution in equity.Now the earnings of the company will have to be divided by that many more shares.(Earnings Per Share = Net Profit/ Number of Shares)Since the profits remain the same but the number of shares has increased, the EPS will decline.Theoretically,When EPS declines, the stock price should also decrease proportionately. But, in reality, it may not happen.<br /><br />That’s because:<br /><br />i. The stock is now more liquid. Now that there are so many more shares, it is easier to buy and sell.<br /><br />ii. A bonus issue is a signal that the company is in a position to service its larger equity. What it means is that the management would not have given these shares if it was not confident of being able to increase its profits and distribute dividends on all these shares in the future.<br /><br />CONCLUSION<br /><br />Declaring Bonus shares is a sign that companies are increasing their profitability. If you look back, many companies have announced issues of bonus shares to their shareholders by capitalizing their free reserves . Shareholders have benefited tremendously, even after accounting the inevitable reduction in share prices post-bonus, since the floating stock of shares increases. So keep an eye on bonus history when you decide to buy a stock-It may be a good indicator that the company is healthy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96448416018959830.post-80820961305490180862012-10-17T20:44:28.876+08:002012-10-17T20:44:28.876+08:00Teng
