EnerSys is engaged in stored energy solutions for industrial applications. Co. has three reportable segments: Energy Systems, which includes uninterruptible power systems applications for computer and computer-controlled systems, as well as telecommunications systems, switchgear and electrical control systems; Motive Power, which includes power for electric industrial forklifts used in manufacturing, warehousing and other material handling applications; and Specialty, which includes starting, lighting and ignition applications in transportation, energy solutions for satellites, military aircraft, submarines, ships and other tactical vehicles as well as medical and security systems. We show 52 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our ENS shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute ENS market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing ENS market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing ENS'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 ENS versus a peer is one thing; comparing
ENS 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 ENS can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching ENS by allowing them to research the ENS market cap history. |
