Year by year
| Fiscal year | ROIC | Read from |
|---|---|---|
| FY2016 The filed borrowings do not add up to a total we can stand behind: the filer's own liability subtotals leave room for debt we did not read. | n/a | 10-K, filed 2017-02-17 |
| FY2017 The filed borrowings do not add up to a total we can stand behind: the filer's own liability subtotals leave room for debt we did not read. | n/a | 10-K, filed 2018-02-20 |
| FY2018 The filed income tax is outside 0 to 100% of pre-tax income (a tax benefit on a profit, a charge on a loss, or a charge above the profit), which is a one-off in the tax line and not a rate operating profit was taxed at, so after-tax operating profit is not computed. | n/a | 10-K, filed 2019-02-15 |

How each year is computed
Operating income x (1 - effective tax rate) / (equity + total debt - cash) x 100
Each year is a ratio of lines in that year's filed annual report, with the nightly recompute's own rules for what counts as a filed line. Nothing is estimated, smoothed or filled in: a year that cannot be computed says why.
