YOY

Year On Year, particularly in the context of percentage growth.

For example if revenues have grown as follows:

Year 1: $100m

Year 2: $110m

Year 3: $132m

The related year-on-year (YOY) percentage growth figures are calculated as:

Years 1-2: [110-100=10]/100 - 1 = 10%

Years 2-3: [132-110=22]/110 = 20%.

Also known as Y/Y.
