Arbutus Biopharma Corporation is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company. Co. is leveraging its virology expertise to identify and develop novel therapeutics with distinct mechanisms of action, which can potentially be combined to provide a functional cure for patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (cHBV) infection. Its HBV product pipeline includes Imdusiran and AB-101. Imdusiran is its proprietary, conjugated GalNAc, subcutaneously delivered RNAi therapeutic product candidate. AB-101 is an oral PD-L1 inhibitor that has the potential to reawaken patients' HBV-specific immune response by inhibiting PD-L1. We show 52 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our ABUS shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute ABUS market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing ABUS market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing ABUS's market cap history versus its peers.
Many "beginner" or "novice" investors will look at one stock trading at a price of $10 per share and another trading at
a price of $20 per share and think the latter company is worth twice as much. Of course, that is a completely meaningless comparison without also knowing how many shares outstanding there are for each of the two companies,
and then calculating their respective market caps. Comparing the share price of ABUS versus a peer is one thing; comparing
ABUS market cap versus a peer is a completely different story.
Furthermore, via fluctuation both in per-share price and in the number of shares outstanding (via issuance of new shares over time, the repurchase of existing shares),
the market cap for a company like ABUS can fluctuate over the course of history.
