Anparterne er tegnet til kurs 100.
Tegnet ifm. stiftelsen til kurs 100.

I think that this means that the shares were subscribed at par value but I am neither sure of this, nor know how to phrase it exactly.

shares subscribed at par
Explanation:
You are right.
The person buying the shares would subscribe for them at par.
The company issued the shares at par (to the shareholders).

(see page 29/50)

Example 25 – Company with subscribed shares
Mr N wants to set up in business as a bookseller. He needs at least £100,000 to buy premises, equipment and stock. He sets up a company and he and Mrs N each subscribe for 40,000 ordinary £1 shares at par and the company borrows £20,000 from the bank. Mr N draws a salary which after four years is £40,000. Mrs N does not work for the company. Company profits are used to repay debt and expand the business. The business does well and after 6 years the profits are sufficient to pay a dividend of £10,000.

According to my economist husband, kurs 100 = par in English.

Another way of putting it in Danish is at sælge til pålydende, i.e. sell 10-kroner shares for 10 kroner etc. They are still sold at kurs 100, if you want to use that exression.

neutral  Chris S: You have me worried here... Where do you get the par from? Aren't they just subscribed for at a price of 100 (which may or may not be par)?/// Thanks Mette. That's some serious future embarrassment avoided!

agree  Mette Melchior: "par" is equivalent to "pari" in Danish which is also called "kurs 100". A bit confusing maybe, but it refers to the fact that the trade price is equivalent to 100% of the nominal value. See also http://sproget.dk/lookup?SearchableText=pari
