Coterra Energy is an independent oil and gas company engaged in the development, exploration and production of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. Co.'s assets are concentrated in areas with known hydrocarbon resources, which are conducive to multi-well, repeatable development programs. Co. operates in one segment, oil and natural gas development, exploration and production, in the continental U.S. Co.'s operations are primarily concentrated in three operating areas, the Marcellus Shale in northeast Pennsylvania, the Permian Basin in west Texas and southeast New Mexico and the Anadarko Basin in the Mid-Continent region in Oklahoma. We show 16 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our CTRA shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute CTRA market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing CTRA market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing CTRA'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 CTRA versus a peer is one thing; comparing
CTRA 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 CTRA can fluctuate over the course of history.
