Authorized shares are the total number of shares a company can legally issue, while issued shares are the number the company has issued to date. The number of authorized and issued shares may be the same or different, in which case there would be more authorized than issued shares.

The main difference between authorized shares and outstanding shares is that authorized shares are the maximum number of shares a company can issue, while outstanding shares are the number of shares that have already been issued.

Authorized shares, or authorized stock, are simply a legally allowed maximum number of shares that a company can issue to investors. The number of authorized shares is specified in the company's articles of incorporation.

10 to 15 million is a commonly used range (we set 10 million as default for the Cooley GO Docs Incorporation Package). “Issued and outstanding shares” refers to the number of shares that have been issued and are outstanding at a given time. This number cannot be greater than the number of authorized shares.

Authorised Share Capital is the shares of the company in total. It is the maximum number of shares that a company may issue ing to its Memorandum and Articles of Association. These shares may have been issued or not. The Issued Share Capital is the Share Capital which is owned by the Shareholders.

Authorised share capital is the maximum number of shares a company can issue, as outlined in its Memorandum of Association or Articles of Incorporation. Management often does not fully utilise this capital, reserving the unissued shares for future needs, such as raising additional capital quickly.

Outstanding shares decrease when a company repurchases its own stock. The total number of outstanding shares can't be greater than the total number of authorized shares as laid out in a company's articles of incorporation. Outstanding shares represent ownership of the company.
