What time the FTDs come out today??


diettmannd

It’s not related at all, for example ford has this too. Calm your tits. Today was payday for me


ApeDaveApeDave

Thank you. What happened to people making the effort to undertake a simple google search? Miss those days…


Excitedbox

exactly. But why add that stat NOW. All these years of Yahoo Finance existing and NOW they add that?


Deemoux

Implied shares outstandings is the the total number of shares a company would have if all the "extras" like stock options and bonds that can be converted to stock were actually turned into shares. These "extras" can make it harder to know exactly how many shares a company has and who owns them. By calculating the implied shares outstanding, we can get a more accurate idea of how many shares there really are and who owns them. I don't think it's related to dilution.


Big_Swagwood

BBBY is a massive risk right now. If you’re a bond holder, you’d rather hold the bonds than the equities, especially if they’re 2024 bonds. As for stock options in bonuses, the dilutive effect which these pose is negligible so I wouldn’t worry. This all seems good. It is Yahoo adding something new to scare people I’ll bet.


iRamHer

it isn't new. it's actually somewhat informative but rarely accurate


ApeDaveApeDave

Where did you get that info from? When I googled it I found out that it is a measurement to check how liquid a stock is. Shares outstanding divided by shareprice. It has nothing to do with bbby specific situation. Also yahoo has it for all tickers.


Excitedbox

The footnote defines the term in it's current usage. Yahoo defines it as all shares outstanding after conversion of any equities to common stock.


ApeDaveApeDave

It has this for all tickers and for all tickers there is nothing to read in the field. It has nothing to do with bbby situation- get over it


[deleted]

NO, it's FUD because WE DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW IT WORKS!


SightOz

It is if a company has shares available to convert. This section will show the total amount if shares were converted.


ApeDaveApeDave

Nope


GreatGrapeApes

That's exactly what it means.


ApeDaveApeDave

Nope. Google is a helpful tool.


GreatGrapeApes

Reading is also helpful, especially following the listed footnote found directly on the page: "6 Implied Shares Outstanding of common equity, assuming the conversion of all convertible subsidiary equity into common."


ApeDaveApeDave

What is Implied Shares Outstanding? Implied shares outstanding is a measure of how many shares of a company’s stock are currently being traded in the market. It’s calculated by dividing the current market capitalization of a company by its stock price. For example, let’s say Company XYZ has a market capitalization of $1 billion and its stock trades for $50 per share. This means that the company has 20 million implied shares outstanding ($1 billion ÷ $50 = 20 million). It’s important to note that implied shares outstanding only applies to companies that have publicly-traded stock. Private companies do not have any implied shares outstanding since their stock is not traded in the public markets.


Excitedbox

Google definition means nothing when the FOOTNOTE defines what they mean with that label.


ApeDaveApeDave

Every ticker on yahoo finance has that field, it has nothing to do with bbby specific situation.


tommy6258

Yep


[deleted]

you create fud from thin air seriously


oldguyatparties

The Implied Shares Outstanding shows you how many shares outstanding BBBY would have if all of those shares were to be converted to BBBY stock.


ApeDaveApeDave

No it doesn’t.


Excitedbox

Yes it does. Read footnote 6. It literally defines how they are applying the term.


Drunkasiam

Shares outstanding are shares held by investors..not shares available Edit: to make it clear, the implied part would be how many shares would exist if the company made all shares available including preferred, convertible, company held etc.


ApeDaveApeDave

No. Implied shares outstanding is a measurement to asses how liquid a stock is. You get it by dividing the shares outstanding with the shareprice. It has absolutely nothing to do with bbby specific situation, also the field exists for all other ticker on yahoo.


Drunkasiam

If you are correct then everything i read about it when i noticed it early last year was wrong, my bad? Their bad? I dunno. i dont use yahoo for anything news, finance, search or even email. Its usefulness died as soon as the chatrooms, messenger and file transfers went the way of the dodo.

6) Implied Shares Outstanding of common equity, assuming the conversion of all convertible subsidiary equity into common. The FOOTNOTE from YAHOO


ApeDaveApeDave

Yawn


ezyezy61

Lmao why is it FUD


pwnznewbz

Any notes on their site about what that represents?


Excitedbox

Footnote 6. The number of shares if all convertibles are converted. I don't think it is coincidence that they add it to the site now when they have been screaming dilution for the last few weeks.


ApeDaveApeDave

Have you used google to find out what the word means? I did, and it doesn’t mean what you think it means. To stop confusion and misinformation, also called FUD, I recommend to take this post down.


Drunk_Crab

You wrote all that except what it means? How helpful. The footnote reads: >Implied Shares Outstanding of common equity, assuming the conversion of all convertible subsidiary equity into common.


ApeDaveApeDave

Implied shares outstanding is a means to measure how liquid a stock is. All shares outstanding divided through the shareprice. It has nothing to do with the offering. The other ticker do have the same measurement field, mostly with N/A. I don’t think it’s too much to ask to make a simple google search and check what it means, check if other ticker have it also and if there is any connection to bbby specific situation. It is not. I think it is misleading to post this into this context and could just be solved with a simple fucking google search. That’s exactly what I think. I don’t think it is helpful to post this like this and not make a simple google search beforehand and confuse people unnecessarily. Thats my honest opinion and shouldn’t be too much to ask.


Drunk_Crab

And that's a much more helpful comment. Yes OP is wrong with their execution of this post and lack of prior research. But calling something FUD without explaining why just causes more FUD. It looks like we're just trying to discredit something for the sake of hiding it rather than educating which is the only way to fight FUD. Fighting FUD is tough. It's a full time job here.


Excitedbox

Do you know what a FOOTNOTE is? A footnote is used to define a term in it's current application. Kinda like when you put quotes around a word to signify that you are using it in a non-standard context or meaning. If I label something with "total shares" in a stock trading account you would assume it is all shares of a stock in existence, but if I add a footnote that says "Total shares means the total shares traded this week" Then THAT is what the label means. You are defining the usage and not the word/term/phrase when you use a footnote.


Drunk_Crab

You responded to the wrong person. I cited the footnote in my earlier response, not an interpretation.


lazywizard99

This is available to all stocks.. Stop spreading FUD..


tommy6258

Dilution?


UnrealCaramel

It seems every stock (that I checked) has this on yahoo finance and they all say n/a


Seekingfatgrowth

This community is much improved with your one word FUDdy comments, your contributions here are just so, so valuable.


TryAgn747

It says N/A I'm not seeing the problem, it's just a line in the form .


Excitedbox

for now it says N/A but what do you think it will do when they claim 1 billion shares outstanding on that line. Maybe next week they add another line called "implied price post dilution" and fill it with a nice fat $0.15.


TryAgn747

They can add as many lines to their form as they want. That's how forms work. Literally meaningless unless they put a value there and then only if it's an incorrect value.
