No, not in any state I've practiced in. I suspect there is no such legal requirement in any U.S. jurisdiction. However, shareholders and their boards expect growth.
Additionally, note the distinction between profit and growth. For a long time, Amazon grew a lot and shareholders saw returns in terms of stock price, but the company itself made little to no profit.
