Where the return came from
Yearly rates to Mar 2026, per-share figures restated for splits and bonuses.
| Over | Return a year | Earnings growth | Change in P/E | Dividend yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 year | −40.4% | −56.3% | +30.8% | 2.5% |
| 3 years | +29.7% | −24.5% | +69.3% | 1.9% |
| 5 years | +23.4% | −11.0% | +35.4% | 3.0% |
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 over 1, 3 and 5 years is on profit divided by shares in issue at both ends: the earnings per share stated for one end does not match that year's profit and share count. Earnings growth over 1, 3 and 5 years includes one-off items (exceptional items and the result of businesses sold or closed) of more than a tenth of the profit of the year to Mar 2026.
