Explanation:
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.
