Gross profit: 37 periods, Q1 FY18 to Q1 FY27: not printed by the filing, worked out from its own lines.
EPS, diluted: Q4 FY11: quarter's net income to common over its shares, to the cent, the shares from counts implied by EPS, near the year's EPS less the nine months'. 12 periods, Q4 FY15 to Q4 FY26: quarter's net income to common over its shares, to the cent.
Diluted shares: 16 periods, Q4 FY11 to Q4 FY26: share-days: the 12-month average less the 9-month, weighted by days.
From each company's 10-Q and 10-K filings, the newest version of each figure. Quarters are as filed (a fourth quarter is the year less its first nine months), fiscal years as the 10-K prints them, restated where a later 10-K restated them, and balance sheet lines as of the period's end. A quarter whose 10-Q isn't filed yet is from the company's results release. Growth is on the same period a year earlier. A dash is a period with no figure for the line: the filing doesn't print it, or it hasn't been read yet.
