Margins and asset turnover use operating revenue (interest earned for banks, excluding other income), not total income. Liquidity, leverage and return ratios need a filed standalone balance sheet, which exists only for recent years; returns use year-end equity/assets. Dividend payout is shown only for companies with a dividend record. † = built from a summed fiscal year.
