Disclaimer

Figures are reproduced as filed and are not restated: a change of accounting standard or of consolidation basis moves the series without anything happening to the business. Where that happened, the table says so in place of the year-on-year figure.
Ratios and per-employee figures are computed from the filed lines rather than taken from the filing, and use year-end balances rather than averages.
