Weighted average shares rose 15.3% between Dec 2022 and Dec 2025 (16.6% in the latest year).
| Shares (weighted avg.) | Dec 2025 | 173M |
| Shares (weighted avg.) | Dec 2024 | 149M |
| Shares (weighted avg.) | Dec 2022 | 150M |
How it's calculated: Share growth = weighted average shares ÷ earlier-year weighted average shares − 1.
Rule: Weighted average shares up 5% or more in a year, or 10% or more over three years.
Why it can matter: When a company issues new shares, each existing share becomes a smaller slice of the profits, so earnings per share can lag total earnings.
Common innocent explanations: Shares issued to pay for an acquisition or to fund growth, or employee share awards that vest over time.
