What this company does

Revenue compounded at +3.0% a year over five years — but profit grew faster: net income at +33.0%, earnings per share at +34.2%.

The share count fell from 0.03B to 0.03B — the buyback concentrates the same profit into fewer slices.

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.
