My take was that this measure was to our benefit, and reduce the dilution of shares, but I think up to this point it may have been accounted for as Treasury stock, so I am not certain. If so, and it reduces the Treasury stock only then it may have no impact on shares outstanding - I used to know how this worked accounting-wise, but it's been a long time for me. I'm sure someone like Rmarchma could explain this handily, along with a number of other accountants on the board.
