LAst post of the day
3 classes of shares Authorized, Issued and Outstanding
Authorized - total amount that can be issued by the company
Issued - Shares that have been earmarked for a particular purpose, includes restricted shares, unvested options and other shares that are not tradeable
Outstanding - Shares that are current in the market and can be actively traded
so these options/warrants/RSA's are issued but cannot be sold as they need to vest and until they vest cannot be converted. Upon vesting they go into the O/S as they are now tradeable securities.
Hope this clears things up, otherwise hit me up on twitter
