Ocular Therapeutix is a biopharmaceutical company. Co. commercializes two products in the U.S.: DEXTENZA®, an intracanalicular insert for the treatment of both post-surgical ocular inflammation and pain and ocular itching associated with allergic conjunctivitis, and ReSure Sealant, an ophthalmic device designed to prevent wound leaks in corneal incisions following cataract surgery. Co. also has product candidates in preclinical and clinical development designed to utilize its bioresorbable hydrogel technology to treat retinal diseases including wet age-related macular degeneration; glaucoma and ocular hypertension; and ocular surface diseases and conditions including dry eye disease. We show 36 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our OCUL shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute OCUL market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing OCUL market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing OCUL'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 OCUL versus a peer is one thing; comparing
OCUL 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 OCUL can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching OCUL by allowing them to research the OCUL market cap history. |
