Share Price Trends
The share price exhibited a general upward trajectory over the observed period, beginning at $37.69 in 2005 and reaching $252.02 by 2025. Notable fluctuations include a decline during the financial crisis period with a dip to $16.95 in 2008, followed by a sustained recovery and growth in subsequent years. The share price surpassed the $100 mark around 2019 and experienced significant increases thereafter, peaking above $250 by 2025. The data indicates strong investor confidence and positive market valuation, particularly in the later years.
Sales Per Share
Sales per share showed variability with periods of both growth and decline. Initial growth occurred from $6.51 in 2005 to $10.05 in 2011, with some volatility around 2008-2009, coinciding with broader economic challenges. Following 2011, sales per share fluctuated but trended upward, reaching a peak of $24.8 in 2023. Despite a dip in 2024 down to $18.99, sales per share rebounded to $22.51 in 2025. This trend suggests overall sales growth despite intermittent short-term setbacks.
Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio
The P/S ratio showed considerable fluctuation over the years, reflecting changes in market valuation relative to sales. The ratio initially decreased from 5.79 in 2005 to a low of 1.91 in 2008, reflecting undervaluation during economic downturns. Subsequent years saw a recovery and gradual increase, peaking at 12.98 in 2021, indicative of a strong market premium on sales growth or anticipated future performance. After a reduction in 2022 to 7.14, the ratio stabilized around 11.2 by 2025, signaling sustained investor willingness to pay a premium relative to sales.
Overall Insights
The integrated analysis of share price, sales per share, and P/S ratio illustrates a company that has undergone economic cycles including downturns and recoveries, with significant long-term growth. Market confidence, as reflected in share price and P/S ratio, has strengthened considerably in the last decade. Sales per share growth supports the higher valuation, though the P/S ratio fluctuations hint at changing investor sentiments and expectations. The data reflects resilience and improving financial performance with a positive outlook in recent years.
