American National Bankshares is a one-bank holding company. Through its banking subsidiary, American National Bank and Trust Company, Co. provides an array of financial products and services, including commercial, mortgage, and consumer banking; trust and investment services; and insurance. Co. has two reportable segments, community banking and wealth management. Community banking involves making loans to and generating deposits from individuals and businesses. Wealth management include estate planning, trust account administration, investment management, and retail brokerage. Investment management include purchasing equity, fixed income, and mutual fund investments for customer accounts. We show 56 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our AMNB shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute AMNB market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing AMNB market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing AMNB'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 AMNB versus a peer is one thing; comparing
AMNB 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 AMNB can fluctuate over the course of history.
