A bonus issue is a share issue in which share capital is increased by transferring the company's own funds, such as unrestricted equity, to share capital. Unlike a new share issue, no new money is added from outside.
The company can either issue new shares to existing shareholders or raise the shares' quota value. Ownership proportions are unaffected — everyone owns the same share as before, but the share capital is larger. The bonus issue is recorded as a share ledger event.
A bonus share is a new share issued in a bonus issue, without the shareholders paying anything for it.
