    It is the lowest market value that the bond can have. It is calculated assuming that the holders take cash on redemption rather than convert.

    Usually, bond holders will be expecting to convert because they are expecting that the shares will be worth more than the cash alternative, and so you would usually expect the actual market value to be higher than the floor value.
