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 | −37.3% | +3.3% | −40.0% | 0.6% |
| 3 years | +18.5% | +5.9% | +11.3% | 0.6% |
| 5 years | +9.5% | +1.7% | +7.0% | 0.7% |
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.
