That’s not correct. If a share is in the O/S, the company no longer owns it and cannot sell it for capital. Thus the name “outstanding” or “issued and outstanding” meaning a person owns it. If FRLF is selling stock to raise capital, it is from the A/S that is not “issued and outstanding.” That is dilution, but not all of that is bad as long as the company invests the capital in the business and makes it more valuable, the idea being the increase in value will more than offset the increase in O/S and be a win for shareholders.
