Affirm Holdings, Inc. provides consumers a flexible alternative to traditional payment options. Co. operates a payment network that helps consumers and merchants drive growth. Its platform comprises three core elements: point-of-sale payment solutions for consumers, merchant commerce solutions, and a consumer-focused app. Its Affirm App and Website provide tailored offers from merchants based on consumers' preferences. Consumers can apply at affirm.com or via the Affirm App and, upon approval, receive a single-use virtual card to use online or in-store. Affirm Card allows consumers to link a bank account to pay in full, or apply to pay over time through the Affirm App. We show 15 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our AFRM shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute AFRM market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing AFRM market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing AFRM'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 AFRM versus a peer is one thing; comparing
AFRM 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 AFRM can fluctuate over the course of history.
