A quick definition of no-par-value stock:

No-par-value stock is a type of stock that does not have a specific value assigned to it. Instead, it is given a legal or stated value that may not reflect its actual value. This type of stock represents a proportional part of a corporation's capital and grants the holder the right to participate in the company's general management and to share in its net profits or earnings. Unlike par-value stock, no-par-value stock does not have a fixed price and is often issued without a minimum price requirement.

A more thorough explanation:

No-par-value stock is a type of stock that is issued without a specific value assigned to it. Instead, it is given a legal or stated value that has little or no connection to the stock's actual value. This type of stock is often used by companies that want to have more flexibility in setting the price of their shares.

For example, if a company issues 100 shares of no-par-value stock and sets a legal value of $1 per share, the actual value of each share could be much higher or lower than that amount. This allows the company to adjust the price of its shares based on market conditions and other factors.

Another example of no-par-value stock is Berkshire Hathaway's Class A shares, which are currently priced at over $400,000 per share. Despite this high price, the company has never split its shares, which means that the actual value of each share is much higher than its legal value.

Overall, no-par-value stock gives companies more flexibility in setting the price of their shares, but it can also make it more difficult for investors to determine the true value of a company's stock.
