Market capitalisation measures equity-market value
Share price alone does not show company size.
Investopedia calculates market capitalisation by multiplying outstanding shares by their market price. The result changes when either component changes and supports comparisons between company-size groups. It is distinct from an appraisal of intrinsic value or the full cost of buying a business, which can involve debt and other obligations.
