The analysis of the financial data over the presented periods reveals several notable trends regarding share price, sales per share, and the price-to-sales (P/S) ratio.

Share Price
The share price shows a fluctuating pattern with an initial decline from $73.49 in 2006 to a low of $45.53 in 2008. Following this trough, a general upward trend is apparent, accelerating notably from 2012 onward. The share price reaches a peak of $291.16 in 2025, representing a substantial increase over the entire period. Despite minor fluctuations, the overall trajectory is markedly positive, indicating improved market valuation.
Sales per Share
Sales per share exhibit consistent growth throughout the time frame. Starting at $10.15 in 2006, sales increase steadily each year, reaching $59.62 by 2025. This upward trend suggests strong operational performance and expanding revenue generation on a per-share basis, underscoring business growth and increased profitability potential.
Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio
The P/S ratio experiences a decline from 7.24 in 2006 to a low around 3.32 in 2011, indicating that the share price fell relative to sales or sales grew faster than the share price during this period. Post-2011, the ratio generally trends upward, fluctuating between approximately 3.5 and 6.13 through subsequent years. There is an observed peak in 2015, after which the ratio settles around the mid-5 range till 2025 with some variability. This pattern implies that market valuation relative to sales became more favorable after 2011 but with moderate oscillations, reflecting changing investor sentiment or market conditions.

In summary, the data demonstrate a strong recovery and growth in share price following the 2008 downturn, accompanied by steady increases in sales per share. The P/S ratio's initial decline followed by stabilization and moderate growth indicates evolving market valuation dynamics, balancing sales growth with share price performance.
