Usually, Convertible Debenture is any form of Debenture which can be converted into some other kind of security. Convertible Debentures can be converted into shares or Common Stocks.
The Convertible Debenture's market price should not fall below its intrinsic value (book value or asset-based value). The intrinsic value is calculated by multiplying the number of shares converted at face value with the current market price of common stock.
Usually, Convertible Debentures offer more safety to the investor compared to Common Shares or Preference Shares.
In the case of Convertible Debentures, Short Selling can be done, and by short selling, the market value of a stock comes down. This lets the Convertible Debentureholder make a claim for additional stocks with the help of more Short Selling. This is termed as death spiral financing. [In our case slightly wounded]
Convertible Debentures are suitable for investors who look for potential increases in asset value (appreciation) compared to that yielded by Bonds, and more earnings than Common Stocks provide.
