That part which has been paid should. Shares are sometimes issued and then called in stages; the full issue amount can be paid in installments. If shares are issued and part paid, the unpaid part is (obviously) not paid up. Perhaps the answer you are looking for is the fact it is Share Premium, rather than Nominal, makes no difference. (In fact, the premium bit is more or less meaningless. It just reconciles issuing 10p nominalm shares for (say) £1.00. They are 10p nominal shares with a 90p premium rather than £1.00 shares. If there is a subsequent rights issue at (say) £2.00 per share, each will have a £1.90 premium. The only values that really mean anything are the issue amounts of £1.00 and £2.00 (real money changes hands). The rest are paper numbers. Neither says anything about value; that is determined by demand and supply on the stock exchange.
