Verrica Pharmaceuticals is a dermatology therapeutics company developing medications for skin diseases requiring medical intervention. Co.'s product pipeline consists of: VP-102, which is a propriety drug-device combination that contains a good manufacturing practices-controlled formulation of cantharidin which is being developed for potential use in treating molluscum contagiosum, external genital warts and common warts; VP-315, which is an oncolytic peptide-based injectable therapy for the potential treatment of dermatology oncologic conditions, including basal cell carcinoma; and VP-103, which is a cantharidin based drug device combination for the potential treatment of plantar warts. We show 25 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our VRCA shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute VRCA market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing VRCA market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing VRCA'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 VRCA versus a peer is one thing; comparing
VRCA 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 VRCA can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching VRCA by allowing them to research the VRCA market cap history. |
