Share Price
The share price exhibited fluctuations over the analyzed period. Initially, it showed an upward trend from approximately $37 in 2005 to a peak around $71 in 2015. Subsequently, a notable decline occurred, with the share price reaching a low near $6.59 in 2020. A partial recovery was observed in 2021, with a price of $26.42, followed by another decline to approximately $16.34 by 2022. Overall, the share price displayed high volatility, with a significant downward trend post-2015.
Sales Per Share
Sales per share demonstrated a generally consistent upward trajectory throughout the period. Starting from $17.5 in 2005, this metric increased steadily to reach nearly $98.54 in 2022. There were minor fluctuations around 2019 and 2020, but the overall trend reflects steady growth in sales on a per-share basis.
Price-to-Sales Ratio (P/S)
The P/S ratio showed a declining trend over the years. Beginning at 2.13 in 2005, the ratio steadily decreased to values below 1.0 after 2010, reaching lows of approximately 0.07 in 2020. Despite a slight increase to 0.31 in 2021, it declined again to 0.17 in 2022. This decreasing P/S ratio indicates that market valuations relative to sales have decreased significantly, suggesting weakening investor confidence or declining market valuation relative to sales growth.
Overall Analysis
The data indicates that while the company experienced consistent operational growth reflected in increasing sales per share, its market valuation as reflected by share price and P/S ratio has deteriorated significantly after 2015. The divergence between rising sales per share and declining share price and valuation ratios implies that market participants may have concerns about profitability, competitive position, or future prospects despite higher sales. The pronounced volatility and sharp declines in share price highlight potential underlying challenges not captured by sales growth alone.
