A companies A/S or (authorized stock 1 billion) is basically the amount of stock inventory the company can issue for cash.
There is also a PAR value assigned to stock inventory. Which is the lowest price their stock can be sold at. (issued at) Usually .0001.
So if we use these 2 figures which a company chooses in their corporate start up documents. Most all start up's begin with the ability to raise 1 billion shares x .0001 cents per share or $100k cash to start.
The O/S is the amount of shares already issued. And the float is the tradable shares able to be traded on the open market. The difference between the O/S & float are shares which were issued with some type of restriction to the issue. Like the holder can't sell until a date or stock price point is reach or only can sell a max of 10% of the daily traded volume.
These types of restrictions are often placed on funding, options, and warrant shares to restrict major dilution happening in a big bang. But for them to enter the open market in stages or drips and drabs. Eventually it is expected they will get there. Just not all at once.
