What does Capital Stock 5000 shares-no par value mean?
Par value, sometimes referred to as maturity value is the face value of a stock certificate or bond and sets the price below which the security will not be issued. In the case of a bond, it is the principle amount that is due at maturity or call. In the case of a company's stock, the par value has no relation to the market value of the security and is typically set at $0.01 or $0.001 for US companies (though they can also issue no par value shares). Federally incorporated Canadian companies by contrast can only issue no par value shares. Provincially incorporated companies can issue shares with a par value which can be helpful in tax planning, estate freezes and unique preferred share issues. So the short answer to your question is that the 5,000, simply denotes how many shares you have, but the "no par value" part is for all intents and purposes irrelevant and only means that the shares were initially created with no par value. It's an aspect of the shares that's really only relevant to the company's accountants.

What is it called when a corporation issues additional shares of stock at a reduction of par or stated value?
When a corporation issues additional shares of stock at a reduction of par or stated value, it is typically referred to as a "stock split" or a "stock dividend." In this context, the reduction in par value allows the company to increase the number of shares outstanding while maintaining the total equity value. This practice can make shares more affordable and attractive to investors, but it does not change the overall market capitalization of the company.

For accounting purposes, a stock split is typically defined as a stock dividend that exceeds 25%.

What is water sharing?
Shares of stock that are issued at a value in excess of a company's actual assets are known as watered stock. The term arose many decades ago when a par value was assigned to shares of stock by the board of directors. The par value was correlated by many investors to the actual asset value per share of a company since companies could not sell additional stock below the stated or par value. Dishonest stock promoters would deceptively assign a high par value in order to sell overvalued or watered shares to investors. Due to investor confusion and misuse by shady stock issuers legislation was passed to allow stock to be issued at no par value. Once used as a metric of stock valuation, the term par value has little meaning for present day investors.
