Formulas for calculating shares outstanding Shares outstanding = Shares issued - Shares repurchased. Shares outstanding = Authorised shares - Treasury stock.
Let's look again at our Company XYZ. We know from the previous example that the company has 1,000 authorized shares. If it offered 300 shares in an IPO, gave 150 to the executives, and retained 550 in the treasury, the number of shares outstanding would be 450 shares or 300 float shares + 150 restricted shares.
Shares outstanding = Shares issued - Shares repurchased. Shares outstanding = Authorised shares - Treasury stock.
To calculate the weighted average of outstanding shares, take the number of outstanding shares and multiply the portion of the reporting period those shares covered; do this for each portion and then add the totals together.
The number of outstanding shares is also in the capital section of a company's annual report. The number of issued and outstanding shares, which is used to calculate market capitalization and earnings per share, are often the same.
Because issued shares refers to the total number of shares a company has created, and treasury shares refers to shares that have been issued but bought back, subtracting these two numbers results in the number of outstanding shares.
Shares outstanding = Shares issued - Shares repurchased. Shares outstanding = Authorised shares - Treasury stock.
1) Companies usually disclose the number of shares outstanding in their financial statements, such as their balance sheet or income statement. 2) Most companies have an investor relations section on their website which provides information on the number of shares outstanding.
