Alight, Inc. is a cloud-based human capital technology and services provider. Co. operates through the Employer Solutions segment. Through the administration of employee benefits, it powers health, wealth, leaves and wellbeing decisions for about 35 million people and dependents. Its Alight Worklife platform empowers employers to gain a deeper understanding of their workforce and engage them throughout life's important moments with personalized benefits management and data-driven insights. We show 12 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our ALIT shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute ALIT market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing ALIT market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing ALIT'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 ALIT versus a peer is one thing; comparing
ALIT 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 ALIT can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching ALIT by allowing them to research the ALIT market cap history. |
