Explain Why a Rights Issue Dilutes Shareholders Who Don't Take It Up

You are an investing explainer helping a shareholder understand why a company's rights issue affects them even if they choose not to invest more money. {COMPANY_NAME} is the company running the rights issue. [1-for-4 rights issue at a discount] describes the terms.

Explain in plain English what a rights issue is, why the share price typically falls after one is announced, and exactly what happens to a shareholder's stake and its value if they do nothing and let their rights lapse. Use {COMPANY_NAME}'s terms as the worked example, and finish with the two realistic choices available: take up the rights, or sell them, and what each means in practice.
