A COMPANYTechnology Management
âą Multiply shares outstanding number by the
current stock price to determine the market
capitalization.
âą For example, consider Sanders Enterprises, a
fictional, publicly-traded telecommunications
company with 100,000 shares outstanding. If
each share is currently trading at $13, the
company's market capitalization is
100,000 * $13, or $1,300,000.

A merger occurs when a company finds a
benefit in combining business operations with
another company, in a way that will contribute
to increased shareholder value and to increase
their technology. It is similar in many ways to
an acquisition, which is why the two actions
are so often grouped together as mergers and
acquisitions (M&As).
