MaxLinear is a provider of communications systems-on-chip solutions used in broadband, mobile and wireline infrastructure, data center, and industrial and multi-market applications. Co. is a fabless integrated circuit design company whose products integrate various portions of a communication system, including radio frequency, analog, mixed-signal, digital signal processing, security engines, data compression and networking layers, and power management. In most cases, these products are designed on a single silicon-die using standard digital complementary metal oxide semiconductor processes and conventional packaging technologies. We show 60 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our MXL shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute MXL market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing MXL market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing MXL'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 MXL versus a peer is one thing; comparing
MXL 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 MXL can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching MXL by allowing them to research the MXL market cap history. |
