Coffee Holding is a wholesale coffee roaster and dealer. Co.'s primary products are: wholesale green coffee, which includes unroasted raw beans imported from around the world and sold to large and small roasters and coffee shop operators; private label coffee, which includes coffee roasted, blended, packaged and sold under the specifications and names of others, including supermarkets that want to have their own brand name on coffee; and branded coffee, which includes coffee roasted and blended to its own specifications and packaged and sold under its licensed brand names in different segments of the market. Co. also provides tea and table-top coffee roasters and grinders. We show 55 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our JVA shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute JVA market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing JVA market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing JVA'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 JVA versus a peer is one thing; comparing
JVA 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 JVA can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching JVA by allowing them to research the JVA market cap history. |
