Theoretical Ex-Rights Price (TERP) Formula

TERP = (Existing Price * Existing Shares + Rights Price * Rights Shares) / (Existing Shares + Rights Shares)

Calculates the theoretical fair price of a stock after a rights issue and values the rights entitlement.

Worked Example: 1:4 rights issue at ₹120 (Existing price: ₹200)

TERP: **₹184 per share**. Value of the rights entitlement: **₹64**.

Rights Issues: Valuing shareholder discount buying privileges

Sanjay owned shares in a firm trading at ₹200. The company launched a 1:4 rights issue at a discounted price of ₹120 per share, allowing existing holders to purchase additional equity.

He calculated the Theoretical Ex-Rights Price (TERP) to be ₹184 per share. This gave the rights entitlement a fair market value of ₹64, which Sanjay could either subscribe to or sell.

Rights issues allow companies to raise capital from existing shareholders by offering discounted shares, adjusting the ex-rights price.

Always subscribe to or sell your rights entitlements. Ignoring them will result in capital loss as the share price drops post-issue.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a rights issue?

A rights issue is an invitation to existing shareholders to purchase additional new shares in the company, usually at a discount to the market price.

What happens to the stock price after a rights issue?

The stock price typically drops to the Theoretical Ex-Rights Price (TERP), which is the weighted average of the old share price and the discounted new share price.

Can I sell my rights instead of buying the shares?

Yes. If the rights are 'renounceable', you can sell your rights entitlement (RE) on the open market to other investors for a cash profit.
