Arko Corp. is an independent convenience store operator. Co. operates through four segments: Retail Segment, Wholesale Segment, Fleet Fueling Segment, and GPMP Segment. The Retail segment includes the operation of a chain of retail stores, which includes convenience stores selling fuel products and other merchandise to retail customers. The Wholesale segment supplies fuel to dealers, on either a consignment or cost-plus basis. The Fleet Fueling segment includes the operation of proprietary and third-party cardlock locations, and issuance of proprietary fuel cards that provide customers access to a nationwide network of fueling sites. We show 18 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our ARKO shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute ARKO market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing ARKO market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing ARKO'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 ARKO versus a peer is one thing; comparing
ARKO 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 ARKO can fluctuate over the course of history.
