Seasoned equity offering

Summary

A seasoned equity offering (SEO) or capital increase is a new equity issued by an already publicly traded company.[1][2] Seasoned offerings may involve shares sold by existing shareholders (non-dilutive), new shares (dilutive), or both. If the seasoned equity offering is made by an issuer that meets certain regulatory criteria, it may be a shelf offering.
