| Green Hills Software has achieved spectacular business success with a focus on growing earnings per share. This success is due to an exceptionally long period of very high revenue growth combined with a high profit margin. Green Hills Software has averaged nearly 30% per year revenue growth for the last 25 years and has maintained an average operating profit margin of more than 20%. Very few public companies have achieved as high a rate of growth or as high a profit margin for as long. This extraordinary earnings-per-share growth was accomplished without capital investment beyond an initial $83,000 investment in 1982. From this $83,000, Green Hills Software has earned more than $155 million in cumulative net income (according to audited financial statements under GAAP) and paid over $90 million in cash dividends |
