| About Sotheby's |
| Sotheby's is a global art business. Co.'s operations are organized under two segments: Agency and Finance. The Agency segment accepts works of art on consignment and match sellers (also known as consignors) to buyers through the auction or private sale process and agency segment activities also include the sale of artworks that are principally acquired incidental to the auction process and the activities of RM Sotheby's, an equity investee that operates as an auction house for investment-quality automobiles. The Finance segment provides art-related financing activities by making loans that are secured by works of art. We show 38 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our coverage of BID's shares outstanding history. Understanding the changing numbers of BID shares outstanding — and comprehending the concept of differing number of shares outstanding in general comparing companies like BID versus peers — is critical for investors. Many "beginner" or "novice" investors will look at one stock trading at a price of $10 per share and another trading at a price of $20 per share and think the latter company is worth twice as much. Of course, that is a completely meaningless comparison without also knowing how many shares outstanding there are for each of the two companies. Furthermore, via issuance of new shares over time, or the repurchase of existing shares, the number of shares outstanding can fluctuate over the course of history.
