Slide the table for earlier years · "·" marks a figure not available in our data for that year.
Growth
Revenue compounded at −1.9% a year over the five years to FY2025.
Compound annual rates per period — left blank where that exact year isn't on file, the series crosses a loss, or (per-share rows) a split falls inside the window.
Profitability
Return on equity has no reading this year — return on capital employed, just below, still does: -16%.
The 16-year record
EPS, diluted, dividend per share and shares outstanding are shown without shading, and a vertical line marks the year the share count changed — the series crosses a large, unexplained change in share count, so the years on either side are not on a comparable scale.

Company facts, as filed
Reconciled in 14 of the 16 fiscal years we could check. 1 of those reconciliations are divergences — the figures exist but don't fit the formula this check expects; that isn't the same as an error. 12 checks were skipped: cost of revenue is not tagged before 2019. Six checks were skipped: the balance sheet is not tagged before 2010. Two checks were skipped: EPS is not tagged before 2009.
