Our approach to share capital reduction
We use several approaches to decrease the share capital of a company in Panama, depending on the individual requirements and situation of the company. The methods we use to reduce share capital may vary, depending on the circumstances.
Stamping shares
This technique consists of decreasing the face value of current shares and decreasing the total authorized shares accordingly. It is a simple and economical method, however, it necessitates the consent of shareholders.
Exchanging shares
New shares are issued at a lower nominal value in exchange for current shares, resulting in a reduction of the overall capital. Although this approach provides more versatility, it may be harder to execute.
Reducing the number of shares
Shares are bought back from investors or eliminated, reducing the overall number and therefore the capital. This method can be advantageous for shareholder consolidation or exit plans.
Paying dividends
Paying out profits to shareholders as dividends decreases the amount of retained earnings allocated to the authorized shares of the Corporation. Nonetheless, the extent of this reduction depends on the amount of profits available and may not result in a substantial decrease in capital.
