Montrose Environmental Group is an environmental services company. Co.'s business segments are: Assessment, Permitting and Response, which provides scientific advisory and consulting services to support environmental assessments, environmental emergency response and recovery, toxicology consulting and environmental audits and permits for existing operations, facility upgrades, new projects, decommissioning projects and development projects; Measurement and Analysis, which provides environmental testing and laboratory services; and Remediation and Reuse, which provides clients with engineering, design, implementation and operations and maintenance services. We show 16 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our MEG shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute MEG market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing MEG market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing MEG'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 MEG versus a peer is one thing; comparing
MEG 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 MEG can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching MEG by allowing them to research the MEG market cap history. |
