Return on equity (ROE) is the profit a company earns for every dollar of shareholder money invested in it, shown as a percentage. It is net income divided by shareholder equity, and the table shows both amounts: the profit earned and the equity it was earned on. A higher ROE means more profit per dollar of equity, but ROE also rises when equity shrinks through buybacks, dividends or losses, and it has no meaning for a company with negative equity. Quarterly points divide the trailing four quarters of net income by the balance at that quarter end; annual points divide the filed fiscal-year net income by the fiscal-year-end balance.
