Where the return came from
Yearly rates to Mar 2026, per-share figures restated for splits and bonuses.
| Over | Return a year | Earnings growth | Change in P/E | Dividend yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 year | +32.5% | +24.3% | +5.3% | 1.5% |
| 3 years | +32.7% | +26.5% | +3.6% | 1.6% |
| 5 years | +31.0% | +13.4% | +13.4% | 2.4% |
Return is price growth plus the average dividend yield. Change in P/E is (1 + price growth) / (1 + earnings growth) - 1, so the parts compound rather than add.
