Sherwin Williams Co. SHW
Revenue compounded at +5.1% a year over five years — but profit grew slower: net income at +4.8%, earnings per share at +6.9%.
The share count fell from 0.27B to 0.25B over the period.
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.
Each USD of equity produced 59 cents of profit this year.
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.
