Manage Rights/Warrants

In the Rights/Warrants panel, you can manually add and change a right or warrant. A right is a privilege allowing existing shareholders to buy shares of an issue of common stock shortly before it is offered to the public, at a specified (usually discounted) price in proportion to the number of shares already owned. A warrant is a certificate, usually issued along with a bond or preferred stock, entitling the holder to buy a specific amount of securities at a specific price, usually above the current market price at the time of issuance, for an extended period. In the case that the price of the security rises to above that of the warrant's exercise price, the investor can buy the security at the warrant's exercise price and resell it for a profit. Otherwise, the warrant will expire or remain unused. Warrants are listed on options exchanges and trade independently of the securities with which they are issued.
