Source: XBRL data Novo Nordisk A/S files with the SEC, latest filing dated Feb 4, 2026 (see filings on SEC EDGAR). Provided for information only, not investment advice. Check the filing before relying on a number.

Per-share figures and share counts are restated for stock splits the filings show: 2-for-1, first reported Jan 31, 2024.

EPS growth is left out where the share count moved enough to suggest a split the filings do not show. Growth rates need a positive starting figure. CAGR is compound annual growth between fiscal years. The CSV holds every period on file, in full figures, from the same SEC filings.

Foreign private issuers file annual reports with the SEC, so there are no quarterly statements here.
