Allegiant Travel Co. is a leisure travel company focused on providing travel and leisure services and products to residents of under-served cities in the U.S.. Co. provides various travel services and products, including scheduled service air transportation, ancillary air-related products and services, third party products and services, and fixed-fee contract air transportation. Co. operates through two segments: Airline and Sunseeker Resort. We show 62 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our ALGT shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute ALGT market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing ALGT market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing ALGT'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 ALGT versus a peer is one thing; comparing
ALGT 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 ALGT can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching ALGT by allowing them to research the ALGT market cap history. |
