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 | +0.2% | −46.1% | +84.5% | 0.7% |
| 3 years | −7.4% | −36.0% | +43.1% | 1.1% |
| 5 years | +12.4% | +137.1% | −53.2% | 1.4% |
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.
