MasTec is an infrastructure construction company operating mainly throughout North America across a range of industries. Co.'s operating segments include: Communications, which performs engineering, construction, maintenance and customer fulfillment activities related to communications infrastructure; Clean Energy and Infrastructure, which primarily serves energy, utility, government and other end-markets through the installation and construction of power generation facilities, primarily from clean energy and renewable sources; and Oil and Gas, which performs engineering, construction and maintenance services for pipelines and processing facilities for the energy and utilities industries. We show 57 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our MTZ shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute MTZ market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing MTZ market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing MTZ'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 MTZ versus a peer is one thing; comparing
MTZ 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 MTZ can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching MTZ by allowing them to research the MTZ market cap history. |
