Each year's change is the diluted weighted average share count against the year before, with stock splits taken out; the headline change compares the two ends of the span on one basis. Buybacks and stock pay are added up over the same years. Buybacks that only offset stock pay leave the count flat: both are shown, no verdict. A change this large usually comes from an IPO, a merger or a reverse split inside the span; the year-by-year rows show where. How

Where the cash came from and where it went

FY2023 to FY2025, from the cash flow statements in the 10-Ks, added up

Each number is a line of the cash flow statement as the company tagged it. "Other, net" is what those lines do not cover (investments bought and sold, other financing and investing lines, and exchange rates); Tickdelta does not estimate it.

Each bar is one fiscal year; its colours add up to what the cash flow statement says the company spent on each line, and the line across it is that year's operating cash flow. Spending above the line was paid from new debt, shares sold or cash on hand. A bar part links to the 10-K it comes from. A line the company did not report is left out, not estimated, so the shares are of operating cash only and can add up to more or less than 100%. Debt repaid is the gross amount, so refinanced debt is counted each time it is repaid. A reading aid, not a grade: Tickdelta does not say whether a split was good. Banks and insurers are left out.
