You could buy every single share in existence, that would not be considered a buy back. A buy back must be of free trading or outstanding shares that are to be retired from the O/S total. Otherwise they can be sold at anytime, and they do not affect earnings per share, only retired shares do that. There has been no buy back, only dilution. Remember, the company falsely stated in a PR that they had enough money to fund operations. Suddenly, that has changed with over 6 billion outstanding. They lied and said no dilution was happening. Like I said, there are some serious questions that now need answering.
