As has been pointed out, たる is just an archaic form of である. As such, it has no lexical meaning.

If you belong to the 直訳 school, you¥'ll translate this as the ¥"target number of *shares* is 100 *shares*¥". NOT!
Not having number, Japanese writers get awfully tangled sometimes. No, ¥"pcs¥" is not an acceptable counter--here or anywhere.

: Brandon was too polite. You got the Japanese grammar right, but your translation smacks of paid-by-the-word "in order to" nonsense.
