RESULTS 2003-2009 FINANCIAL RESULTS – 2003-2007 All results herein are reported via indexed relationship of user results over nonuser results. For example, revenue growth was measured from 2003 – 2007 and refined into a compound annual growth rate (CAGR), at which point the users’ average CAGR is displayed indexed relative to non-users’ average CAGR. REVENUE GROWTH AND PROFITABILITY The user vs. nonuser discussion begins with a look at “top-line” revenue growth. Key drivers of revenue growth include a company’s ability to execute strategic transactions and alliances, and to out-compete others with speed to market. Visiting freshly identified clients or customers quickly can mean the difference between winning market share from a competitor and simply servicing existing business. Revenue growth is a good measure of a company’s ability to sustain earnings, and when combined with factors such as asset efficiency, point to a philosophy of strong re- investment in a company’s core and most profitable business. From 2003 to 2007 users of business aircraft grew their top line at 6 percent greater than the annualized rate of nonusers (116 percent on a weighted basis).
