<You are correct, and you don't need me or anyone to confirm this. Wondered why some thought, think, selling more shares at $5.5 is not dilution. Did not bother to post, my thoughts.>

Because the warrants were already outstanding... if they float more (ala the convertible bond issue!) then its dillutive. Exercising warrants does not dilute in reality.

Most earnings per share calculations use what is called 'fully diluted shares' which assumes exercise of options and conversion of warrents. While the transaction probably did increase shares, it was already factored in.
