(HBB), Co. designs, markets and distributes a range of branded, small electric household and other housewares appliances, including, air fryers, blenders, coffee makers, food processors, indoor electric grills, irons, juicers, mixers, slow cookers, toasters and toaster ovens. HBB also designs, markets and distributes commercial products for restaurants, fast food chains, bars and hotels. HBB also participates in the other market with its owned brands Hamilton Beach® Professional and Weston® farm-to-table and field-to-table food processing equipment. We show 26 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our HBB shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute HBB market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing HBB market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing HBB'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 HBB versus a peer is one thing; comparing
HBB 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 HBB can fluctuate over the course of history.
