Check out the nasdaq website. Look up that company, find out how much one share of stock is selling for. Then find out the number of available shares. Then multiply the two. That's your answer.\n\nThat doesn't mean you could buy the company for that figure, but that will answer your question.

Are you looking for a company that drop-ships but don't really care what products they drop-ship?

When a company acquires another they get all the brands and trademarks as well.  Texaco was bought out by Chevron, for example, but they still run the Texaco havoline car in Nascar because it has brand loyaty.  Also, sometimes it takes a while to complete an acquistion and merge cultures and compaines.
