Mercury Systems is a technology company serving the aerospace and defense industry, positioned at the intersection of high-tech and defense. Co. groups its products into the following categories: components, which includes the basic building blocks of an electronic system; modules and subassemblies, which combines multiple components to serve a range of functions, including processing, networking and graphics display; and integrated subsystems, which brings components, modules and/or sub-assemblies into one system, enabled with software. Co. provides modular open systems architectures for its products, including standards such as RACEway, RapidIO, VXS, VPX, REDI, and OpenVPX. The MRCY YTD return is shown above.
The YTD Return on the MRCY YTD return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the total return for a given investment year-to-date for the current calendar year
(up to the end of prior trading session). Arguably, choosing the current calendar year for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand a year-to-date look can be extremely
useful in the context of our country's tax system which taxes gains and income on a calendar year basis.
Thus, researching Year-To-Date Returns is good practice for investors — whether MRCY YTD return or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's YTD return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the MRCY YTD return calculation (with any dividends reinvested as applicable), and to provide a
coverage universe of many stocks and ETFs to be able to compare YTD returns.
