Coupa Software is a provider of business spend management (BSM) solutions. Co. provides a cloud-based BSM platform that delivers a range of capabilities that would typically require the purchase and use of multiple disparate point applications. Co.'s main platform consists of procurement, invoicing, expense management and payments solutions that form the transactional engine for managing a company's business spend. In addition, Co.'s platform provides solutions to help companies manage technical and strategic areas of BSM, including areas such as strategic sourcing, contract management, contingent workforce, supply chain design and planning, treasury management, and spend analysis. We show 26 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our COUP shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute COUP market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing COUP market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing COUP'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 COUP versus a peer is one thing; comparing
COUP 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 COUP can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching COUP by allowing them to research the COUP market cap history. |
