YTD: Year to Date

YTD stands for Year to Date. Year-to-date (YTD) is a period, starting from the beginning of the current year (either the calendar year or fiscal year) and continuing up to the present day.

It is often used to calculate a company’s income up to the present date and may be compared to the same period of the previous year to evaluate a company’s financial health.

Year-to-date is used in many contexts, mainly for recording results of an activity in the time between a date and the beginning of the year.

YTD describes the return so far this year. For example: the year to date (ytd) return for the stock is 8%. This means from January 1 of the current year to date, stock has appreciated by 8%.
