When incorporating your startup, you’ll come across two key terms: authorized shares and issued shares. Understanding the difference can impact your fundraising, ownership structure, and long-term growth. Authorized Shares- The total number of shares your company is legally allowed to issue, as stated in your corporate charter (i.e., certificate of incorporation). Think of it as your company’s ownership potential-you may not issue them all at once, but they’re there if needed. Issued Shares- The number of shares actually distributed to shareholders, e.g., founders, employees, and investors. These represent real ownership stakes in the company.? When you determine ownership percentage, this is based on the percentage of all of the issued shares. Why it matters? Some startups issue all authorized shares. By issuing too many too soon, it forces you to expend additional monies and time to amend the charter if wanting to issue stock options or additional shares. Striking the right balance is key! Not sure how many shares to authorize? In venture capital, the custom is to initially authorize 10 million shares total and to issue somewhere between 5 and 7 million shares for founders and option pool. At Padilla Law PLLC , we guide startups through these critical decisions to ensure long-term success. With years of experience in corporate law and fundraising, our founder José Padilla has helped countless businesses structure their cap tables the right way. Let’s get your company set up for growth! #PadillaLaw #shares
