GCP Applied Technologies provides construction products and technologies that include admixtures and additives for concrete and cement, in-transit concrete monitoring and management system, waterproofing products and construction products. Co. has two segments: Specialty Construction Chemicals, which supplies concrete admixtures, polymer fibers and in-transit monitoring and management systems to concrete producers; and Specialty Building Materials, which manufactures and sells building and flooring materials used in both new construction and renovation/repair projects for the commercial, residential and infrastructure markets including waterproofing sheet and liquid applied membranes. We show 27 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our GCP shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute GCP market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing GCP market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing GCP'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 GCP versus a peer is one thing; comparing
GCP 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 GCP can fluctuate over the course of history.
