RESULTNew shares created
PUBLIC UPDATECapital changes recorded

Create new shares only after checking authority, rights, dilution and the company’s constitution.

An allotment increases the number of issued shares and can bring in a founder, investor or employee, capitalise a contribution or adjust ownership. It is different from transferring existing shares between owners.

The directors must have authority to allot, existing pre-emption rights may apply and the price and class rights must be clear. We prepare the routine corporate record, SH01 return, statutory-register update and share certificate pack.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Issue of New Shares Service FAQs

Practical answers about eligibility, documents, timing and responsibility.

What is the difference between issuing and transferring shares?+

An issue creates new shares and may dilute existing owners. A transfer moves existing shares without changing the total issued number.

When is SH01 filed?+

The return is generally due within one month after the allotment.

Do all shareholders need to agree?+

That depends on the articles, existing allotment authority, pre-emption rights and any shareholder agreement.

Can shares be issued for services?+

Possibly, but valuation, accounting and tax consequences should be reviewed professionally.

Will you create a new share class?+

Not within the routine service. Bespoke rights and constitutional amendments require separate legal drafting.
