Fuel Tech is a technology company engaged in the development, commercialization and application of technologies for air pollution control, process optimization, water treatment and engineering services. Co.'s segments are: Air Pollution Control Technology, which includes technologies to reduce oxides of nitrogen emissions in flue gas from boilers, incinerators, furnaces and other stationary combustion sources; and FUEL CHEM® Technology, which uses chemical processes in combination with Computational Fluid Dynamics and Chemical Kinetics Modeling boiler modeling, for the control of slagging, fouling, corrosion, opacity and other sulfur trioxide-related issues in furnaces and boilers. We show 55 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our FTEK shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute FTEK market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing FTEK market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing FTEK'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 FTEK versus a peer is one thing; comparing
FTEK 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 FTEK can fluctuate over the course of history.
