Issued Shares: The number of shares that has ever been sold to and held by the shareholders of a company. Includes stock that has been repurchased by the company. Does NOT include shares that have been retired.

Outstanding Shares: Stock currently held by investors. Does NOT include stock that has been repurchased by the company..

If either no shares have ever been repurchased or if all repurchased shares have been retired then Outstanding shares = Issued Shares.
