The financial data reveals several key trends in the share price, operating profit per share, and the price-to-operating profit (P/OP) ratio over the analyzed periods.

Share Price
The share price demonstrated notable volatility across the timeframe. Initially, from March 2005 to March 2009, the price declined from $29.76 to a low of $13.39, showing a downward trend amidst market challenges. Subsequently, the share price recovered and exhibited consistent growth, reaching $154.69 by March 2019. After a slight dip in March 2020 to $149.23, the price surged significantly to $261.5 in March 2021, suggesting a strong market rebound or renewed investor confidence. Following this peak, the share price experienced some corrections, stabilizing in the range of approximately $188 to $218 through mid-2024.
Operating Profit per Share (OP per share)
Operating profit per share showed fluctuations with periods of growth and decline. From 2005 to 2008, it increased moderately from $1.03 to $1.93, indicating improved operational efficiency. There was a sharp decline in 2010 to $0.29, followed by recovery and some variability, including negative operating profit per share values in 2017 and 2018 (approximately -$2.3), suggesting operational challenges or restructuring costs during those years. From 2020 onwards, the operating profit per share improved significantly, rising steadily to $5.24 by mid-2024, indicating enhanced profitability and operational effectiveness in recent years.
Price-to-Operating Profit (P/OP) Ratio
The P/OP ratio reflected the relationship between share price and operating profit per share, and it exhibited high volatility. Early values ranged between approximately 12 and 41, with an outlier spike to over 100 in 2010 and an extreme peak near 9,893 in 2016, likely caused by operating profits approaching zero, distorting the ratio. Data gaps between 2016 and 2020 limit full trend analysis, but post-2020 values declined sharply from around 95 to 41 by mid-2024. This decline in P/OP ratio suggests that either operating profits increased faster than share prices or share prices adjusted downward relative to earnings, resulting in more reasonable valuation multiples in recent years.

Overall, the data indicates a recovery and growth trajectory after various operational and market challenges, with improved profitability and a more stable valuation environment in the most recent periods analyzed.
