Is StepStone Group a small, medium or large cap company?

Here is how you can tell. Multiply the share price by the number of shares to get the market cap, then compare it to the usual sizes. Micro cap is under 300 million dollars, small cap is 300 million to 2 billion, mid cap is 2 to 10 billion, large cap is 10 billion and up, and mega cap is over 200 billion. Market caps move every day with the share price, so treat the number as a recent snapshot.
