Key figures with traffic lights

Each light follows a simple, disclosed rule. The comparison is with the sector median of all 90 symbols in the Industrials sector on our list (current members of the S&P 500 and other lists).

Revenue growth

Light yellow: below sector

+0.9% per year, last 5 years

Sector Industrials: median +8.0% (82 symbols)

Net income (total)

Light green: above sector

+32.9% per year, last 5 years

Sector Industrials: median +10.0% (66 symbols)

per share: +33.6% per year (5 years, split-adjusted)

Light rule: Green: grows at least as fast as the sector median (without a sector comparison: grows) · Yellow: grows more slowly · Red: shrinks.

Net margin

Light yellow: below sector

6.3% last fiscal year
