The annual total returns of the stock (capital appreciation plus dividends) for each of the 10 past calendar years as well as the year-to-date period (YTD). For comparison, we also show how the stock’s returns did against those of the industry and the market.
Total return represents shareholders' gains from a stock over a given period of time. Total return includes both capital gains and losses (the increase or decrease in the stock price) and income (in the form of dividend payments). It is calculated by taking the change in the stock's price, assuming the reinvestment of all dividends, then dividing by the initial stock price, and expressing the result as a percentage.
