1. The risk of seizing power
There is arbitrage space in the placement of convertible bonds, and some stocks may rise sharply before the benchmark date because of the market's "grabbing power". At this time, there is a risk that the stock price will fall after the power grab.
2. Risk of interest loss
When the share price of convertible bonds falls below the conversion price, convertible bond investors are forced to become bond investors. Because the interest rate of convertible bonds is generally lower than that of ordinary bonds of the same grade, it will bring interest losses to investors.
3. The company's operational risks
The issuer of convertible bonds is the listed company itself. If convertible bonds exist, listed companies will have great operational risk or solvency risk, and the price of convertible bonds will also be greatly affected.
4. The risk of early redemption
Many convertible bonds stipulate that listed companies can redeem bonds at a certain price after issuing them for a period of time. Early redemption limits investors' maximum rate of return. In addition, when the issuer issues a compulsory redemption announcement, investors who fail to apply for share conversion within the specified time will be forced to redeem at the redemption price and may suffer losses.
Convertible bonds are bonds that bondholders can convert into common shares of the company at the agreed price at the time of issuance. If the bondholders do not want to convert shares, they can continue to hold the bonds until the repayment period expires to collect the principal and interest, or they can be sold and realized in the circulation market. If the holder is optimistic about the appreciation potential of the issuing company's shares, he may exercise the right to convert the bonds into shares at a predetermined conversion price after the grace period, and the issuing company shall not refuse.
The interest rate of this bond is generally lower than that of ordinary companies, and the issuance of convertible bonds by enterprises can reduce the financing cost. The holder of convertible bonds also has the right to sell the bonds back to the issuer under certain conditions, and the issuer also has the right to redeem the bonds under certain conditions.
