Where the return came from

Yearly rates to Mar 2026, per-share figures restated for splits and bonuses.

OverReturn a yearEarnings growthChange in P/EDividend yield
1 year−8.1%+25.4%−28.5%2.2%
3 years+24.6%−1.0%+23.7%2.2%
5 years+28.2%+3.0%+21.1%3.5%
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.
