Details
A redemption is when the par value is paid back to the purchaser of the shares.
Par Value is the apparent worth or face value of the share.
The total value and amount of shares will be reduced.
Redemption vs Share Buybacks
When a company issues shares and later decides to buy some of those shares back, this is considered a share buyback rather than a redemption.
When a company specifies that it will redeem or buyback shares when the shares are issued, this is considered a Redemption. Generally, a specific date is specified as to when the shares will be redeemed when the shares are issued.
The major difference between the two is that the shares bought back in a redemption are considered a security that is expected to be bought back by the issuer.
Example: John Brown was allotted 100 Redeemable Preference shares on the terms that the company will redeem the shares from John in 3 months. After 3 months the company redeems the shares from shares from John. You must also update this information on your own share register and in your company's annual return.
