Understanding Capitalisation of company

Hi,

I recently went through an acquisition and I hope someone can help me understand the breakdown of shares here as I would like to determine the value and percentage ownership of the options pool, vs investor stock vs founder stock?

Total stock is 34M+19M or 53M

Options = 4.4M of 53M = 8.3%

Or are incentives 4.4M + 5.2M out of 53M?

19M is essentially all the investor stock + 61K of debt financing they owned around 56% of the company? Or do I only tally the issues and outstanding and therefore the founders owned even more of the company?

What does it mean to be issued and outstanding?

Capitalization.(a)The entire authorized capital stock of the Company consists, as of the date hereof, of:

(i)34,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and 9,246,000 of which are issued and outstanding.
