SunOpta is focused on the development and manufacture of plant-based and fruit-based food and beverage products. Co. has two segments: Plant-Based Foods and Beverages and Fruit-Based Foods and Beverages. The Plant-Based Foods and Beverages segment provides a line of plant-based beverages and liquid and powder ingredients, utilizing oat, almond, rice, soy, coconut, hemp, and other bases, as well as broths, teas, and nutritional beverages. The Fruit-Based Foods and Beverages segment provides individually quick frozen (IQF) fruit for retail (including strawberries, pineapple, and other berries and blends), IQF and bulk frozen fruit for foodservice (including toppings, purees, and smoothies). We show 59 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our STKL shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute STKL market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing STKL market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing STKL'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 STKL versus a peer is one thing; comparing
STKL 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 STKL can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching STKL by allowing them to research the STKL market cap history. |
