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−17.3%+15.5%−29.6%1.3%
3 years+35.5%+22.7%+9.6%1.0%
5 years+15.9%+19.8%−4.7%1.7%
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.
