  • Use the units shown beside each field.
  • Results update automatically whenever you change an input.
  • Displayed values use up to four decimal places, or scientific notation for very small or large numbers. Calculations use standard floating-point arithmetic; exact integer and fraction tools identify their own precision rules.
  • Nonfloat classification must follow the intended data-provider methodology; this tool does not identify restricted holdings.

Example Calculation

Example inputs
  • Shares outstanding: 1000
  • Nonfloat shares: 250

Shares outstanding = 1000; Nonfloat shares = 250. The primary result is 750.

Frequently asked questions

How do I use this calculator?

Enter shares outstanding, nonfloat shares. The result updates automatically. Use Reset to restore the example values.

What method does it use?

float=outstanding−nonfloat; float %=float/outstanding.. Nonfloat classification must follow the intended data-provider methodology; this tool does not identify restricted holdings.

Why might a rounded result differ?

The calculation keeps full numeric precision internally, then rounds the displayed result. Rounding intermediate steps by hand can produce a slightly different answer.
