From a purely financial standpoint, market capitalization majorly indicates the size and success of a corporation. It is the total value of a company’s outstanding shares multiplied with the current price of each equity share.

Market cap is even necessary to put a stock’s price into context. A cheap share price doesn’t necessarily make a stock cheap. A company could have a share price of $3 — but if there are 1 billion shares outstanding, the stock may be far more expensive than the per-share price suggests.

As market cap is calculated by multiplying the total number of a company’s outstanding shares and the price per share, two factors can alter the figure.

It can either be significant changes in the stock price or if the company issues excess shares or repurchases it, changing the number of outstanding shares.
