| Epoch | Blocks minted | Blocks expected | Luck | Return (yearly) | Active stake (ADA) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |

Blocks expected = 21,600 an epoch for the whole network × the pool's share of the active stake. The return is computed from the blocks minted with the ledger's reward formula unless the rewards were reported.
