The outstanding shares figure is useful to know for an investor that is contemplating buying shares in a company. Dividing the number of shares to be purchased by the number of shares outstanding reveals the percentage of ownership that the investor will have in the business after the shares have been purchased.
A publicly traded company's total number of shares outstanding can usually be found on their investor relations webpage, on stock exchanges' websites, or in the shareholder's equity section on a company's balance sheet as filed with an authorized information service like the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Total outstanding is the amount that customers owe to the company as on date. It is calculated by deducting the total credit amounts from the total debit amount. Calculation: Total Outstanding = (Total Debit amount as on date) - (Total Credit amount as on date).
Shares outstanding = Shares issued - Shares repurchased. Shares outstanding = Authorised shares - Treasury stock.
The firm's balance sheet includes outstanding shares. Shareholders' equity includes total authorized shares and total outstanding shares. Companies generally post the number of outstanding shares on their websites in the investor relations section, and can also be found on stock exchange websites.
The basic number of shares outstanding is simply the current number of shares available on the secondary market. On the other hand, the fully diluted shares outstanding calculation takes into account diluting securities such as convertibles (warrants, options, preferred shares, etc.).
Treasury stock differs from other shares because it is no longer considered outstanding, meaning: it doesn't grant voting rights, isn't entitled to dividends, and doesn't factor into earnings-per-share calculations.
The number of issued shares is recorded on a company's balance sheet as capital stock or owners' equity, while the shares outstanding (issued shares minus any shares in the treasury) are listed on the company's quarterly filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
