Carlyle Group is an investment firm with industry capabilities that deploys private capital across three business segments: Global Private Equity, which advises its buyout and middle market and growth capital funds, its U.S. and internationally focused real estate funds, its natural resources funds, and its Legacy Energy funds; Global Credit, which advises a group of funds that pursue investment strategies including loans and structured credit, direct lending, infrastructure debt, insurance solutions and global capital markets; and Global Investment Solutions, which advises global private equity programs and related co-investment and secondary activities across various fund vehicles. We show 50 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our CG shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute CG market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing CG market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing CG'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 CG versus a peer is one thing; comparing
CG 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 CG can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching CG by allowing them to research the CG market cap history. |
