| About Pacific Drilling SA |
| Pacific Drilling is a holding company. Through its subsidiaries, Co. is an international offshore drilling contractor engaged in providing deepwater drilling services. Co.'s primary business is to contract its drillship fleet to drill wells for its clients. We show 5 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our PACD shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute PACD market cap on those dates. Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing share price, and the resulting changing PACD market cap history over the course of time is important for investors interested in comparing PACD'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 PACD versus a peer is one thing; comparing PACD 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 PACD can fluctuate over the course of history. With this page we aim to empower investors researching PACD by allowing them to research the PACD market cap history. |
