Cencora is a pharmaceutical sourcing and distribution services company. Co. is organized based upon the products and services it provides to its customers. Co.'s segment are: U.S. Healthcare Solutions, which distributes a provision of brand-name, specialty brand-name and generic pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter healthcare products, home healthcare supplies and equipment, and related services to a variety of healthcare providers; and International Healthcare Solutions, which distributes pharmaceuticals, other healthcare products, and related services to healthcare providers as well as engages in specialty transportation and logistics provider for the biopharmaceutical industry. We show 50 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our COR shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute COR market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing COR market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing COR'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 COR versus a peer is one thing; comparing
COR 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 COR can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching COR by allowing them to research the COR market cap history. |
