Hi, 

Sales 1 yr probably means total sales over the course of one year. 

What is the meaning of revenue growth 4 quarters (4 quarters is one year). I assume it meant the growth rate of "sales 1 year", but that cannot be. 

Looking at TSLA, sales 1 yr went from 214 to 230 (in the appropriate units). That is a growth rate of 15/230 = 6 percent. 

The revenue growth 4 quarters is 32.19, which I interpret as 32.19 percent. 

 

Could you please explain this discrepancy? I believe that all your formulas should be spelled out somewhere. Are they available? 

Thanks.

Correction: the stock in question is CRK, not TSLA.

Revenue and Sales are not necessarily the same. The revenue of the business includes other income from investments, licenses or interest on debts for example as well in addition to sales income.
