factors to consider in mergers

Mmansoor10y ago
Good evening! one of the factors given is gearing. i can understand that issuing a loan stock will affect gearing but if a convertible stock is issued will it still affect gearing?and if yes, will it be to the extent of the debt part of it? thanks in advance!

Yes - it will affect the gearing (until it is converted) and it will be a part of the debt.
