Where the cash came from and where it went

FY2026, from the cash flow statement in the 10-K, 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 CEO's years

The CEO of each fiscal year as named in the proxy's pay versus performance table, and what the 10-Ks show for those years. Facts, not a grade.

From the XBRL of the 10-Ks (cash flow statement and diluted weighted average shares); each year as reported in the latest 10-K that includes it. Concepts: buybacks = PaymentsForRepurchaseOfCommonStock; dividends = PaymentsOfDividendsCommonStock; sbc = ShareBasedCompensation.

Price paid per share

What STZ paid on average for each share it bought back, each fiscal year: dollars spent divided by shares bought, both from the 10-K.

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 2013.
