Malvern Bancorp is a bank holding company. Through its subsidiary, Malvern Bank, National Association, Co.'s principal business consists of accepting deposits from businesses and the general public and investing those deposits, together with borrowings and funds generated from operations, in commercial and multi-family real estate loans, one- to four-family residential real estate loans, construction and development loans, commercial business loans, home equity loans and lines of credit and other consumer loans. Co. also invests in and maintains a portfolio of investment securities, primarily comprised of corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, U.S. agency and municipal obligations. We show 45 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our MLVF shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute MLVF market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing MLVF market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing MLVF'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 MLVF versus a peer is one thing; comparing
MLVF 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 MLVF can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching MLVF by allowing them to research the MLVF market cap history. |
