Live Ventures Incorporated is a diversified holding company focused on value-oriented acquisitions of domestic middle-market companies. Its segments include Retail-Entertainment, Retail-Flooring, Flooring Manufacturing, Steel Manufacturing, and Corporate and Other. The Retail-Entertainment segment includes Vintage Stock, Inc., which is engaged in the retail sale of new and used movies, music, comics, books, game systems and components. The Retail-Flooring segment includes Flooring Liquidators, Inc., which is engaged in the retail sale and installation of floors, carpets and countertops. We show 31 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our LIVE shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute LIVE market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing LIVE market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing LIVE'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 LIVE versus a peer is one thing; comparing
LIVE 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 LIVE can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching LIVE by allowing them to research the LIVE market cap history. |
