annual growth
Year-over-year expansion
Annual growth is the increase in something measured over a year's time.
Most often it describes economic expansion—GDP, revenue, or investment returns: The company reported 12% annual growth.
It also applies to physical development: a tree's annual growth appears as rings in its trunk.
The phrase typically implies a rate that can be compared across years.
