Diplomat Pharmacy is a provider of specialty pharmacy services. Co.'s programs consist of the following business services: Dispensing of Specialty Pharmacy and Infusion Drugs, which is engages in the dispensing of drugs and the reporting of data associated with those dispenses to pharmaceutical manufacturers and other outside companies; Hospital and Health System Services, which provides clinical and administrative support services to hospitals and health systems that dispense medications through their outpatient pharmacies; and Hub Services, which are centralized management services for collaboration and efficiency among the main stakeholders in the access of care to medications. We show 22 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our DPLO shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute DPLO market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing DPLO market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing DPLO'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 DPLO versus a peer is one thing; comparing
DPLO 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 DPLO can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching DPLO by allowing them to research the DPLO market cap history. |
