For each fiscal year, the dividend per share for that year divided by the closing price on the last trading day of the fiscal year. The dashed line is the average (median) of the fiscal years.

No dividend is recorded for 2020, either because it was suspended or because the company did not report it. These years do not count towards the average and the range.
