1000 acções preferenciais (6%) de US10 cada

As acções preferenciais dão direito aos seus possuidores a receberem os dividendos antes dos possuidores de acções ordinárias ou, como é o caso, a receberem um dividendo fixo de 6% sobre o valor do par.

Preferred shares Preferred shares give investors a fixed dividend from the company's earnings. And more importantly: preferred shareholders get paid before common shareholders. See: preferred stock.
Preferred stock A security that shows ownership in a corporation and gives the holder a claim, prior to the claim of common stockholders, on earnings and also generally on assets in the event of liquidation. Most preferred stock pays a fixed dividend that is paid prior to the common stock dividend, stated in a dollar amount or as a percentage of par value. This stock does not usually carry voting rights. The stock shares characteristics of both common stock and debt.

Preference shares: These are normally ***fixed-income*** shares whose shareholders have the right to receive dividends before ordinary shareholders would rank above ordinary shareholders for the repayment of their investment in the company.

1.000 6 por cento

A vírgula, nos países de língua inglesa, é usada para separar milhares. Assim, 1,000 é o mesmo que 1.000 para nós.
De qualquer forma, o ponto depois de "cent" é muito estranho.
Entendo que "o capital foi aumentado pela criação de 1.000 ações preferenciais de US$ 10 cada. Não entendo o que faz aí o "6 por cento", a menos que o número 1.000 seja 6% do número anterior de ações. Daí a falta de maior certeza na tradução.
