Issuing bonus shares will result to the increase number of outstanding share capital which consequently will dilute the company's market price per share capital.
Increase in the number of shares reduces the price per share. It will encourage speculative dealings in the company’s shares. Furthermore the rate of dividend in future will decline and may confuse investors.
