The premium over an ordinary share's current market price at which the holder of the convertible security may convert it into ordinary shares.


For example:

the current market price of the ordinary shares is £2,

the conversion price is £2.50.


The conversion premium

= ( £2.50 - £2.00 = £0.50) / £2.00

= 25%.
