Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

A stock redemption refers to a scenario where a company calls back its shares from shareholders. Not all shares allow for this to happen as there would have to be a provision in the stock that allows it to happen.

When a company performs a redemption, they do not have to cancel the shares immediately. They can either choose to retire them or they can keep them in reserve as treasury stock.
