Where the cash came from and where it went
FY2023 to FY2025, from the cash flow statements in the 10-Ks, added up.

Shares and dollars from the statement of shareholders' equity (the cash flow line also counts shares withheld for taxes, so it is not used). Share counts filed before a stock split are put on today's count. A year where the 10-K does not tag both numbers is left out. The latest year with both numbers tagged is 2021.
