Regions Financial is a banking holding company. Through its subsidiaries, Co. provides financial solutions for its clients. Co.'s segments are: Corporate Bank, which represents its commercial banking functions including commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and investor real estate lending; Consumer Bank, which represents its branch network, including consumer banking products and services related to residential first mortgages, home equity lines and loans, consumer credit cards and other consumer loans; and Wealth Management, which provides individuals, businesses, governmental institutions and non-profit entities a range of solutions to help protect, grow and transfer wealth. We show 57 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our RF shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute RF market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing RF market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing RF'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 RF versus a peer is one thing; comparing
RF 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 RF can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching RF by allowing them to research the RF market cap history. |
