BrightView Declares Eighth Consecutive Cash Dividend Payment on Preferred Stock

Key Terms

series a preferred stock financial

Series A preferred stock is a type of ownership share in a company that gives investors certain advantages, such as priority in receiving profits or getting their money back if the company is sold or goes bankrupt. It is often issued during early funding stages to attract investors by offering more security than common shares. This stock matters to investors because it provides a safer way to invest while still holding potential for future gains.

series a convertible preferred stock financial

Series A convertible preferred stock is a class of shares sold in an early funding round that gives investors a mix of protection and upside: it pays a priority claim over common shares if the company is sold or closes, but can be converted into ordinary shares to share in future growth. Think of it like a hybrid between a safer stake and a ticket to ownership; it matters to investors because it affects who controls the company, how future gains are split, and how much their investment is protected from downside.

conversion price financial

The conversion price is the fixed price at which a convertible security, like a bond or preferred stock, can be exchanged for shares of common stock. It acts like a set rate that determines how many shares an investor can receive if they choose to convert their investment. This helps investors understand the value and potential benefits of converting their securities into company shares.

paid in kind financial

Paid in kind means a borrower or issuer settles interest or dividend obligations by issuing more securities (like extra bonds or shares) instead of paying cash. For investors this matters because it preserves the issuer’s cash but increases the number of securities outstanding, which can raise risk of dilution and change the effective return — like taking more coupons on an ongoing purchase instead of paying with money now.

paid in cash financial

Paid in cash means a payment is made using money rather than by issuing stock, taking on debt, or other forms of consideration — like buying a car with cash instead of trading it in or signing a loan. For investors this matters because cash payments use a company’s available money immediately, affecting its cash reserves, balance sheet flexibility and sometimes deal certainty or tax outcomes, which can influence share value and financial stability.
