Re: IAS32- classification
Agree, it's a compound instrument, provided there is something left in equity. However, in practice, I would guess that most of the companies would take the shortcut to say it's full liability.

Re: IAS32- classification
Let me put it differently, if a prefs provides mandatory redemption for the principal amount but the dividends are at the issuer's discretion. That's a compound financial instrument where the present value of the principal is a liability which is discounted by market rate, and the residual value in ...

Re: IAS32- classification
thanks, why this isn't a compound financial instrument? There is no contractual obligation to pay the principal.

Re: Convertible preference shares
Just picking that up out of interest and also wanted to follow up with another question (related). I think, if you conclude that the preference shares are equity instruments, as DJP said, it clearly fails SPPI test. However, I think provided the instrument is not held for trading, the company can st...

Re: IAS32- classification
Hi, Please allow me to reconsider Marek's position in this post. In a case where a company issue prefs and the prefs are redeemable at the issuer's discretion but provide for a mandatory payment of the dividend each year. In that case, I would say that the principal is classified as equity and the d...

Re: Preference shares
Looking at the definition of an equity instrument under IAS 32, it says: The instrument is an equity instrument if, and only if, both conditions are met: (a) no contractual obligation to be settled in cash (b) if the instrument will or may be settled in the issuer's own equity instrument, it is [......

Re: Preference shares

However, if...

Re: Convertible Promissory Note
If the holder ask the issuer to deliver cash and the issuer can't refuse to do so, then, it's a liability. However, where I don't know, which is my question to all the experts here, is if there is conditions in the contract whereby the issuer can do to avoid paying cash. For example, a clause where ...

Re: Convertible Promissory Note
From an issuer's perspective, I think: 1.

If there is ...

Re: Convertible Promissory Note
You are recognising it as a holder I guess, in that case, not expected to satisfy the SPPI criteria because even though it can be converted into a variable number of shares, it seems that there is a cap "90% of the lowest [...]".

Preference shares
Hi, 1. A preference shares which gives the issuer the choice either to settle in cash for deliver a variable number of ordinary shares based on the fair value of an ordinary share at conversion date, is an equity instrument or a liability? My view it's a liability, notwithstanding that the issuer ca...

Re: Preference shares - PIK dividends
But the issuer can avoid to settle it in cash, and deliver fixed number of shares instead. That looks like equity to me. Because they bear the risk of the change in the price of the shares, similar to a shareholder.

Thanks DJP. One more question from the perspective of the issuer. If the prefs can be converted into a variable number of shares. Even though there is no mandatory payment in cash, can this still be considered as equity instrument?
