Past returns don't repeat. What does the price assume now?
The table answers what already happened. A buyer today gets the next ten years, not the last ten, and the share price already reflects what the market expects. That expectation is what you're really betting on.
Two quick checks: run HST through the reverse DCF calculator to see the growth today's price implies, then compare it with what the business actually earns. If the implied growth looks hard to reach, a great past return is no help.
