ATN International is a holding company. Co. provides critical infrastructure-based communications and related information technology solutions to remote and underserved markets in the U.S., Bermuda, and the Caribbean. Co. has two operating segments: International Telecom segment, which provides fixed services, mobility services, carrier services and managed services to customers in Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, Guyana and the U.S. Virgin Islands; and U.S. Telecom segment, which provides fixed services, carrier services, and managed services to business and consumer customers in Alaska and the western U.S. In the western U.S., Co. also provides mobility services and private network services. We show 57 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our ATNI shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute ATNI market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing ATNI market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing ATNI'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 ATNI versus a peer is one thing; comparing
ATNI 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 ATNI can fluctuate over the course of history.
