Which companies grow earnings every year?
Most companies’ earnings rise and fall with the economy. The few that grow every single year, through recessions and rate shocks, tend to have pricing power, recurring revenue or a niche competitors can’t reach, and investors usually pay up for that reliability.

How to read this page
How it’s measured. Diluted earnings per share by fiscal year, as reported, for S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 companies. A run counts consecutive years of higher, positive earnings up to the latest fiscal year.
Sources. Company financial statements from Financial Modeling Prep.
Earnings are as reported, so a one-off charge can end a run even when the underlying business kept growing. Runs are counted from the history we hold; a plus sign means the run reaches its start.
Steady past growth is valuable but not guaranteed to continue, and the market usually prices it in: these companies rarely look cheap.
