Revenue compounded at +4.4% a year over the five years to FY2025 — but profit grew faster: net income at +5.4%, earnings per share at +6.8%.

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.

The 17-year record

Every figure from documents filed with the SEC · USD

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.
