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 | −23.6% | −14.6% | −11.3% | 0.6% |
| 3 years | −4.6% | −13.4% | +9.6% | 0.5% |
| 5 years | +5.4% | −6.1% | +11.6% | 0.6% |
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.
