Marcus is engaged primarily in two business segments: movie theatres and hotels and resorts. Co.'s theatre operations include movie theatres throughout Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas and Virginia, including movie theatre in Wisconsin owned by a third party and managed by Co. Co.'s hotels and resorts operations include wholly-owned or majority-owned and operated hotels and resorts in Wisconsin, Illinois, Nebraska and Oklahoma. Co. also managed hotels, resorts and other properties in Wisconsin, California, Minnesota, Nevada, Nebraska, Illinois and Texas. We show 49 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our MCS shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute MCS market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing MCS market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing MCS'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 MCS versus a peer is one thing; comparing
MCS 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 MCS can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching MCS by allowing them to research the MCS market cap history. |
