Share Price
The share price showed a strong upward trend from 2011 to 2021, rising from $51.90 to a peak of $607.56. However, starting from 2022, a notable decline is observed with the price dropping to $390.41 in 2023 and slightly recovering to $345.49 by 2025. This indicates considerable volatility in recent years after a prolonged growth period.
Operating Profit Per Share (OPPS)
Operating profit per share experienced generally consistent growth across the entire period. Starting at $8.94 in 2011, OPPS increased steadily, reaching $92.42 by 2025. The growth accelerated significantly after 2017, with a particularly sharp rise from 2018 onwards, suggesting improved operational efficiency or profitability.
Price to Operating Profit Ratio (P/OP)
The P/OP ratio exhibited considerable fluctuation. Initially, it increased from 5.81 in 2011 to a high of 35.52 in 2017, demonstrating that share price appreciation outpaced growth in operating profit per share during that time. From 2017 onwards, the ratio consistently declined, reaching 3.74 by 2025, implying that the share price decreased in relative terms compared to the operating profit, potentially signaling market reassessment of valuation or faster earnings growth relative to share price.
Summary of Trends and Insights
The data reflects a period of significant share price appreciation followed by recent correction, while operating profit per share steadily increased throughout the entire period, particularly after 2017. The high P/OP ratio around 2017 suggests a phase of market exuberance or overvaluation, which subsequently normalized with falling ratio values indicative of either share price adjustment or improved profitability. Overall, the company appears to have strengthened its earnings capability significantly, while market sentiment or valuation metrics have experienced a downward adjustment post-2021.
