Buyback yield (realized, 1y)1 − shares_at(2026-05-10) ÷ shares_at(2025-05-11) = 1 − 443.5M ÷ 443.5M. Point-in-time share counts from the company's own SEC filings (the same count at both ends), published only when the cash flow statement shows repurchases inside that window. A falling price can't inflate it; negative means net dilution.: -0.00%
Shareholder yield (realized, 1y)Buyback leg + dividend leg: shares retired over the year (-0.00%) + dividends paid over that year ($2.2B) ÷ market_cap_at(2025-05-11) ($447.3B). Both legs are measured against the start of the window, so a payout can't shrink its own denominator.: 0.49%
