the market cap of a company is considered  capital the more capital a company has the better it looks for institutional investor to get in . if we can bring the market cap up the company will look better for larger investors to come in. when this happens it will degrease what ever debit we have considerably. the amount of shares a company has is considered the amount of capital they have. so by bringing the pps up its a win win situation it a win for the company and its a win for the stockholders as well.   here is a article on capital for company's that are publicly traded.



Corporate finance


Main article: Corporate finance

[ edit ] Shares and share capital


Main article: Stock

Companies generally raise capital for their business ventures either by debt or equity. Capital raised by way of equity is usually raised by issued shares (sometimes called "stock" (not to be confused with stock-in-trade)) or warrants .


A share is an item of property, and can be sold or transferred. Holding a share makes the holder a member of the company, and entitles them to enforce the provisions of the company's constitution against the company and against other members. Shares also normally have a nominal or par value, which is the limit of the shareholder's liability to contribute to the debts of the company on an insolvent liquidation.


Shares usually confer a number of rights on the holder. These will normally include:



  • voting rights

  • rights to dividends (or payments made by companies to their shareholders) declared by the company

  • rights to any return of capital either upon redemption of the share, or upon the liquidation of the company

  • in some countries, shareholders have preemption rights, whereby they have a preferential right to participate in future share issues by the company


Many companies have different classes of shares, offering different rights to the shareholders. For example, a company might issue both ordinary shares and preference shares, with the two types having different voting and/or economic rights. For example, a company might provide that preference shareholders shall each receive a cumulative preferred dividend of a certain amount per annum, but the ordinary shareholders shall receive everything else.


The total number of issued shares in a company is said to represent its capital . Many jurisdictions regulate the minimum amount of capital which a company may have, although some countries only prescribe minimum amounts of capital for companies engaging in certain types of business (e.g. banking , insurance etc.).


Similarly, most jurisdictions regulate the maintenance of capital, and prevent companies returning funds to shareholders by way of distribution when this might leave the company financially exposed. In some jurisdictions this extends to prohibiting a company from providing financial assistance for the purchase of its own shares.
