Cancelling common shares:

The members of a board of directors can authorize the repurchase of shares by the company. The bylaws may require the shareholders to approve this action, as a buyback means spending the company's cash. In order to cancel shares, the company must first redeem them by paying the current price on the public stock exchange. A redemption of shares reduces the number of outstanding "issued" shares available to public investors, also known as the float.
