Co.'s business consists of two segments based on the nature of services it provides: Logistics and Storage, which relates to crude oil and refined petroleum products; and Gathering and Processing, which relates primarily to natural gas and NGLs. The MPLX stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the MPLX stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2019 for the given stock.
When performing this calculation it is important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's annual return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon.
One way to factor dividends into the return is simply to count them as cash — we don't do
that here. Instead, our website aims to empower investors
by performing the MPLX annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
