Since you have beginning and ending equity you can use the change in equity formula:
Ending Equity = Beginning Equity + Stock Issuances + Revenues - Expenses - Cash Dividends

This formula can be rewritten as:
Stock Issuances = Ending Equity - Beginning Equity - Revenues + Expenses + cash Dividends
