SPX Flow operates in two business segments, Nutrition and Health and Precision Solutions. The Nutrition and Health segment operates in a regulated, global industry with customers who demand engineered, process solutions. Key products for the segment include homogenizers, pumps, valves, separators and heat exchangers. The Precision Solutions segment primarily serves customers in the chemical, air treatment, mining, pharmaceutical, marine, infrastructure construction, general industrial and water treatment industries. Key products for the segment are air dryers, filtration equipment, mixers, pumps, hydraulic technologies and heat exchangers. We show 26 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our FLOW shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute FLOW market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing FLOW market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing FLOW'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 FLOW versus a peer is one thing; comparing
FLOW 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 FLOW can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching FLOW by allowing them to research the FLOW market cap history. |
