Westrock Coffee is an integrated coffee, tea, flavors, extracts, and ingredients solutions provider, providing coffee sourcing, supply chain management, product development, roasting, packaging, and distribution services to the retail, food service and restaurant, convenience store and travel center, non-commercial account, CPG, and hospitality industries around the world. Co. has two operating segments: Beverage Solutions, which provides products in a variety of packaging, including branded and private label coffee in bags, fractional packs, and single serve cups; and Sustainable Sourcing and Traceability, which utilizes its proprietary technology and digitally traceable supply chain. We show 6 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our WEST shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute WEST market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing WEST market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing WEST'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 WEST versus a peer is one thing; comparing
WEST 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 WEST can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching WEST by allowing them to research the WEST market cap history. |
