Questions investors ask
Which companies have reduced their share count the most?
Sezzle (SEZL), whose shares outstanding fell 83.5% over about five years, then Diebold Nixdorf (−57.1%) and Acadian Asset Management (−55.3%).
How is change in share count measured here?
Shares outstanding on the cover of the latest 10-K or 10-Q against the count about five years earlier, adjusted for stock splits. Fewer shares means each remaining share owns more of the company; more can come from paying for acquisitions in stock or from employee pay.
How this ranking is built
- Which companies: the 1514 companies with stock pages: the largest US-listed companies by market value that file annual reports (10-Ks) with the SEC. Foreign companies that file 20-F or 40-F reports instead aren’t covered yet, so ranks are among these companies, not every US-listed stock.
- Shrinking share count: Shares outstanding on the cover of the latest 10-K or 10-Q against the count about five years earlier, adjusted for stock splits. Fewer shares means each remaining share owns more of the company; more can come from paying for acquisitions in stock or from employee pay.
- Market value: the latest close times the shares outstanding on the cover of the latest 10-K or 10-Q. For a company with several share classes, every class is counted; for depositary shares, the shares each one represents.
- Prices and returns: daily closing prices through Oct 28, 2026. Returns include dividends, reinvested. Financial figures come from each company’s latest 10-K, so fiscal years end on different dates.
- Updates: the rankings are recomputed from the stock pages’ own figures whenever those change, so the two always agree.
