Art's-Way Manufacturing Co., Inc. is a manufacturer of agricultural equipment and specialized in modular science and agricultural buildings. Co. operates through two segments: Agricultural Products and Modular Buildings. The Agricultural Products segment manufactures a variety of specialized farm machinery under its own label, including portable and stationary animal feed processing equipment and related attachments used to mill and mix feed grains into custom animal feed rations; a line of forage equipment consisting of forage boxes, bale processors, running gear, and dump boxes; a line of manure spreaders; sugar beet harvesting equipment, and a line of dirt work equipment. We show 63 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our ARTW shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute ARTW market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing ARTW market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing ARTW'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 ARTW versus a peer is one thing; comparing
ARTW 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 ARTW can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching ARTW by allowing them to research the ARTW market cap history. |
