Revenue growth, operating profit growth and net profit growth are left blank for the year to Mar 2011: between the two periods the company restated its earlier figures, so the two are on different bases and the change is not worked out. Interest cover is left blank for the years to Mar 2013 and Mar 2014: operating profit after depreciation is a loss, and a loss covers no interest bill.

Where the return came from

Yearly rates to Mar 2015, per-share figures restated for splits and bonuses.

OverReturn a yearEarnings growthChange in P/EDividend yield
1 year+140.7%––0.0%
3 years+14.3%––0.0%
5 years+10.7%––0.0%
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. Earnings growth and the change in P/E are left empty where earnings per share at either end of the window was a loss or is not on record.
