G. Willi-Food International is engaged, directly and through subsidiaries, in the development, import, export, marketing and distribution of a variety of food products. Co. has two reportable segments: import, which includes import, export, marketing and distribution of food products; and non-banking credit. The principal products in the import segment product line include: Canned Vegetables and Pickles, which include mushrooms, artichoke, beans, asparagus, capers and corn kernels; Canned Fish, which includes tuna, sardines, anchovies, smoked and pressed cod liver, herring, fish paste and salmon; and Canned Fruit, which includes pineapple, peaches, apricots, pears, mangos and cherries. We show 13 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our WILC shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute WILC market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing WILC market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing WILC'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 WILC versus a peer is one thing; comparing
WILC 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 WILC can fluctuate over the course of history.
With this page we aim to empower investors researching WILC by allowing them to research the WILC market cap history. |
