no imki shares are restricted other than the A shares Cuban owns, as far as I know.

the LA outfit could sell them any time, i suppose.

Float

The total number of shares publicly owned and available for trading. The float is calculated by subtracting restricted shares from outstanding shares.

Also known as "free float".

For example, a company may have 10 million outstanding shares, but only seven million are trading on the stock market. Therefore, this company's float would be seven million.

Stocks with small floats of less than seven million shares tend to be a lot more volatile than others.

Issued Shares

The number of authorized shares that is sold to and held by the shareholders of a company, regardless of whether they are insiders, institutional investors or the general public.

Also known as "issued stock".

Issued shares include the stock that a company sells publicly in order to generate capital and the stock given to insiders as part of their compensation packages. Unlike shares that are held as treasury stock, shares that have been retired are not included in this figure. The amount of issued shares can be all or part of the total amount of authorized shares of a corporation.

The total number of issued shares outstanding in a company is most often shown in the annual report.
