It earned about 32% on equity, year after year, against a ~9% cost of capital — the footprint of real pricing power. Competition usually drags returns like this back down; here it hasn't.

Share count is roughly flat over 5 years — little dilution, little buyback. Total debt has fallen 14% — deleveraging.
