Capital Stock

The term “capital stock” is used to denote the total amount of shares – both common shares and preferred shares – which a company can issue as defined by its corporate charter.

A company may make only a portion of its shares available to investors during it initial public offering (IPO) while withholding a portion of its capital stock for future public offerings or for sale through its transfer agent.
