Odd-Lot Resale
A situation in which a publicly-traded company buys back its own shares from odd lot shareholders, repackages them as round lots, and resells them. Institutional investors are the most common buyers in odd-lot resales. Odd-lot resales save a company from the expense of a pure stock buyback, and also help make its shareholder records tidier.
