How this measure is calculated

What is measured?

Period-average diluted EPS denominator; not period-end shares outstanding.

How are windows compared?

Changes compare matching fiscal-year observations. A window is unavailable unless its exact start and end fiscal years are present in the checked series.

What is excluded?

Repurchase cash and stock-based compensation are contextual USD measures. They are not components of the share-count calculation and do not establish causation.

Display and calculation notes

Display rules

X-axis uses fiscal period end.
Share-line y-axis is range-scaled; USD bar charts use a zero baseline.
DWA is a period-average EPS denominator, not period-end shares outstanding.
Repurchase cash and SBC are USD context; not netted.
Split-adjusted displays keep both reported and chart values.
