Stamping shares
This technique includes decreasing the face value of current shares and simultaneously decreasing the overall number of authorized shares. It is a simple and affordable method, however, it necessitates approval from shareholders.
Exchanging shares
New shares are issued with a reduced nominal value in exchange for current shares, resulting in a decrease in total capital. Although this approach provides more flexibility, it may also be more challenging to execute.
Reducing the number of shares
Stocks are bought back from investors or eliminated, resulting in a decrease in the overall quantity, and subsequently the capital. This method can be advantageous for combining shareholders or planning exit strategies.
Paying dividends
Paying out earned profits to shareholders in the form of dividends diminishes the retained earnings that count towards the company’s authorized shares. The extent of this reduction is contingent upon the profit levels and may not result in a substantial decrease in capital.
