Examples of relative share in the following topics:
-
- Few organizations track market share even though it is an important metric.
- Though absolute sales might grow in an expanding market, a firm's share of the market can decrease which would bode ill for future sales when the market starts to drop.
- Where such market share is tracked, there may be a number of aspects that will be followed:
- Including competition and distribution issues then frames the strategy within realistic boundaries and allows a company to gauge served market share (SAM), the percentage of the market that is already being served, either by that company or all providers.
- The folio plot visualizes the relative market share of a portfolio of products versus the growth of their market.
-
- While business has seen great consolidation in recent years, the share of employment in small firms has been relatively stable over the past few decades.
- This tracks with the slight decline in the small-business share of employment during the late 1990s and the leveling off in the 2000s.
- The small-business share of employment is relatively stable, as shown in the graph above: the bold red line representing all small businesses stays at around 50 to 55% of the total share of employment.
-
- Price to earnings ratio (market price per share / annual earnings per share) is used as a guide to the relative values of companies.
- In stock trading, the price-to-earnings ratio of a share (also called its P/E, or simply "multiple") is the market price of that share divided by the annual earnings per share (EPS).
- P/E ratio = Market price per share / Annual earnings per share
- The price per share in the numerator is the market price of a single share of the stock.
- By comparing price and earnings per share for a company, one can analyze the market's stock valuation of a company and its shares relative to the income the company is actually generating.
-
- Each minor key shares a key signature with a major key.
- A minor key is called the relative minor of the major key that has the same key signature.
- It is easy to predict where the relative minor of a major key can be found.
- What are the relative majors of the minor keys in Figure 4.23?
- C minor is the relative minor of E flat major.
-
- In this context it is sometimes called Newtonian relativity.
- Galilean relativity can be shown as follows.
- Suppose S' is in relative uniform motion to S with velocity v.
- It is this simple but crucial result that implies Galilean relativity.
- But it is assumed to hold in absolute space, therefore Galilean relativity holds.
-
- -- Revenue market share: Revenue market share differs from unit market share in that it reflects the prices at which goods are sold.
- In fact, a relatively simple way to calculate relative price is to divide revenue market share by unit market share.
- Market dominance is a measure of the strength of a brand, product, service, or firm, relative to competitive offerings.
- The most direct is market share, discussed above.
- The concentration ratio of an industry is used as an indicator of the relative size of leading firms in relation to the industry as a whole.
-
- Earnings Per Share (EPS) is the amount of earnings per each outstanding share of a company's stock.
- EPS = Net Income / Average Common Shares.
- The P/E ratio is a widely used metric used for measuring the relative value of companies.
- P/E Ratio = Market Price Per Share / Annual Earnings Per Share .
- The second method, using per-share values, is to divide the company's current share price by the book value per share, which is its book value divided by the number of outstanding shares (Share Price / Book Value Per Share).
-
- There are a number of drawbacks to share repurchases.
- It repurchases the shares with the intention of selling them once the market price of the shares increase to accurately reflect their true value.
- All financial ratios that include the number of shares outstanding (notably earnings per share, or EPS) will be affected by share repurchases.
- It is difficult for shareholders, especially relatively uninformed ones, to judge how the announcement will affect the value of their holdings if there is no guarantee that the full announced repurchase will occur.
- Martha Stewart was convicted of insider trading, which is not the same as insiders choosing whether to sell their shares in a share repurchase.
-
- A dividend is allocated as a fixed amount per share.
- Thus, if a person owns 100 shares and the cash dividend is 50 cents per share, the holder of the stock will be paid 50 dollars.
- For example, for every 100 shares of stock owned, a 5% stock dividend will yield 5 extra shares.
- If the payment involves the issue of new shares, it is similar to a stock split: it increases the total number of shares while lowering the price of each share without changing the market capitalization, or total value, of the shares held.
- They are relatively rare and most frequently are securities of other companies owned by the issuer.
-
- A dividend is allocated as a fixed amount per share.
- Dividends per share (DPS) refers to the dollar amount shareholders earn for each share, calculated by dividing total dividend amount by total number of shares outstanding.
- They are relatively rare and can take the form of securities of other companies owned by the issuer, or products and services.
- It is relatively common for a stock's price to decrease on the ex-dividend date by an amount roughly equal to the dividend paid.
- Dividends are one of the privileges of stock ownership, and preferred shares get more rights to them than common shares do.
