* Q4 derived: fiscal year minus the 9-month value (EPS cannot be derived this way); may be distorted by restatements.

Growth per year over 5 years (otherwise 3 years). Per-share values adjusted for stock split 2:1 (between Aug 4, 2022 and Nov 8, 2022), 1:10 (between Aug 8, 2023 and Nov 8, 2023). Quarters are labeled by the calendar quarter in which they end.
