Dilution may cause the share price to decline because dilution reduces the company’s earnings per share (EPS)Earnings Per Share (EPS)Earnings per share (EPS) is a key metric used to determine the common shareholder's portion of the company’s profit. EPS measures each common share's profit. The extent of decline depends on the percentage of dilution. Given basic shares outstanding, share price, and information of dilutive securities, we can calculate dilution using the treasury stock method, and use the diluted number of shares outstanding and the market capitalizationMarket CapitalizationMarket Capitalization (Market Cap) is the most recent market value of a company’s outstanding shares. Market Cap is equal to the current share price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding. The investing community often uses the market capitalization value to rank companies of the company to calculate its new share price.

Step 1: Calculate the diluted number of shares outstanding using the treasury stock method.

Step 2: Calculate the diluted shares outstanding by adding the additional shares issued due to dilution to the basic shares outstanding.

Step 3: Divide the market capitalization of the company by the diluted shares outstanding to arrive at the new share price of the company.
