Formula and method

EPS rising from 2 to 2.42 over two periods has grown 21% overall and 10% per period on a compounded basis.

Total EPS growth = (final EPS ÷ initial EPS − 1) × 100%; compound growth = [(final EPS ÷ initial EPS)^(1 ÷ periods) − 1] × 100%

Assumptions and limitations

  • This model requires positive starting and ending EPS and a positive number of periods. Use comparable EPS definitions, currencies and share-adjustment bases. Count elapsed intervals; the compounded rate is annual only when each period is one year.
