Radian Group is a holding company. Through its subsidiaries, Co. focuses on a mortgage and real estate business, providing both credit-related mortgage insurance coverage and an array of other mortgage, risk, title, real estate and technology products and services. Co. has two reportable business segments: Mortgage, which provides credit-related insurance coverage, principally through private mortgage insurance on residential first-lien mortgage loans, as well as other credit risk management, contract underwriting and fulfillment solutions; and homegenius, which is primarily a business that provides an array of products and services to market participants across the real estate value chain. We show 57 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our RDN shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute RDN market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing RDN market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing RDN'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 RDN versus a peer is one thing; comparing
RDN 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 RDN can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching RDN by allowing them to research the RDN market cap history. |
