Bill Summary

A BILL To permit an issuer, when determining the market capitalization of the issuer for purposes of testing the significance of an acquisition or disposition, to include the value of all shares of the issuer.

AI Summary

This bill would allow issuers (companies that issue securities) to include the value of all their shares, including preferred stock and non-traded common shares, when determining their market capitalization for the purpose of testing the significance of an acquisition or disposition. This change is intended to avoid "aberrational results" in the current requirements, which only consider the value of the issuer's voting and non-voting common equity. The bill directs the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to revise the relevant regulation to implement this change.
