BCAT offering history
Every offering-related filing in BlackRock Capital Allocation Term Trust’s recent SEC record — registrations (announced capacity) kept separate from pricing documents (executed sales). Reviewed 365 filings back to Apr 22, 2020.
| Date | Filing | What it means | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sep 25, 2020 | 424B1 → | EXECUTED | Prospectus supplement priced — shares or notes (large filers: often a bond deal) |
| Sep 24, 2020 | EFFECT → | EFFECTIVE | SEC declared a registration effective — selling can begin |
Two honest limits. (1) A 424B takedown can price shares or notes— EDGAR’s metadata doesn’t say which, so open the document: large investment-grade filers use these mostly for bond deals (no dilution), small-caps mostly for shares. (2) At-the-market (ATM) programs sell shares gradually and individual sales are not separately filed — the visible footprint is the enabling shelf and its 424B5; actual ATM share counts surface later in the 10-Q/10-K share count. Educational information from public filings, not investment advice.

Does an offering always mean dilution?
