22.6 Capitalisation or Bonus Issues of Shares and Share Splits
22.6.1 Extract from FRS 102 – Section 22.12

22.12 A capitalisation or bonus issue (sometimes referred to as a stock dividend) is the issue of new shares to shareholders in proportion to their existing holdings. For example, an entity may give its shareholders one dividend or bonus share for every five shares held. A share split (sometimes referred to as a stock split) is the dividing of an entity’s existing shares into multiple shares. For example, in a share split, each shareholder may receive one additional share for each share held. In some cases, the previously outstanding shares are cancelled and replaced by new shares. Capitalisation and bonus issues and share splits do not change total equity. An entity shall reclassify amounts within equity as required by applicable laws.

22.6.2 OmniPro comment

The example below illustrates the above point. Where a bonus issue occurs the number of shares only change, the equity balance does not. Instead there is a transfer from profit and loss reserves to share capital.


Example 16: Capitalisation/bonus issue

Company A had significant distributable reserves. Prior to the issue the company had 100,000 shares of CU1 each. Profit and loss reserves total CU3,000,000 at the time of the issue. During the year the company decided to capitalise CU500,000 from profit and loss reserves to the appropriation of the said sum as capital to the holders of the 100,000 Ordinary Shares of CU1 in the capital of the Company. The journal required to reflect this transaction in Company A’s books is:

CU CU
Dr Ordinary Share Capital 500,000
Cr Profit and Loss Reserves 500,000

Being journal to reflect capitalisation of shares
