Live SEC EDGAR feed. Authorizations shown as a percentage of current market cap — the key small-cap metric. At 5%+ of float, buybacks materially reduce share count, unlike mega-cap programs that mostly offset stock-based compensation.

The small-cap edge

Why small-cap buybacks actually move stocks — and mega-cap ones often don't.

When Apple authorizes $90 billion, it's about 3% of its $3T market cap — most of which goes to offsetting stock-based compensation. When a $25M nano-cap authorizes $1.25M (5% of float), share count actually drops by ~5%. That's a material structural earnings-per-share boost. The math is unrecognizable. The opportunity is too.

The share-count math

5% of a $400M cap = a real 5% share-count reduction. 5% of Apple's $3T = a rounding error swamped by SBC dilution. We track the difference.

Small-cap is the primary focus. We also track mega-cap and large-cap programs because the comparison is the point — small-cap impact only makes sense when you see what mega-cap does for context.
