Windows 10: Are the biannual feature updates cumulative?

Five or so years ago I had bought a copy of windows 10 for my laptop, and recently I decided it was time to wipe and reload the OS. The ISO that I had purchased is build 1607. Would I be missing any features if I jumped ahead to installing the most recent feature version, or do I need the ones in between? Are they cumulative?
