Performance graph
This graph illustrates, as required by the Large and Medium-sized
Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008,
the performance of BT Group plc measured by TSR relative to a
broad equity market index over the past five years. We consider the
FTSE 100 to be the most appropriate index against which to
measure performance for these purposes, as BT has been a
constituent of the FTSE 100 throughout the five-year period, and
the index is widely used. TSR is the measure of the returns that a
company has provided for its shareholders, reflecting share price
movements and assuming reinvestment of dividends.
31 March 2006 = 100
