Cary, Here are a few of my possible guesses: 1) Its that 1 in a million time when the market is not working efficiently. The free lunch scenario. 2) The new shares are a preferred with dividend requirements that can be converted into normal shares. 3) The new shares have additional voting rights or warrants. In case 2+3 new shares do not equal old shares. I've also considered the stock split possibility and have not discounted it. Jose
