The share price exhibited notable fluctuations over the observed period. Initially, the price was relatively stable with moderate growth until early 2008, followed by a sharp decline in 2009. Subsequently, there was a recovery phase, with a general upward trend from 2010 onward, culminating in a substantial increase, especially from 2015 to 2022. The highest share price was recorded in 2022 at $192.12, reflecting a significant long-term appreciation since 2006.
Earnings per share (EPS) demonstrated considerable volatility throughout the years. From 2006 to 2008, EPS increased steadily, but there was a drastic negative dip in 2009, indicating a severe loss in that year. EPS rebounded sharply in the following years, peaking around 2016 at $5.08, before showing some fluctuations subsequently. A marked decline occurred again in 2021, with EPS turning negative at -$18.68, followed by a slightly less negative EPS in 2022 at -$1.73, suggesting episodic financial challenges impacting profitability.
The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio presented wide variability, reflecting the fluctuations in earnings relative to share prices. Early on, the P/E ratio decreased steadily from a high of 30.9 in 2006 to below 10 by 2012, corresponding with improving earnings. However, from 2013 onward, the P/E ratio experienced significant volatility, with very high ratios above 40 observed in several years, indicating either elevated share prices relative to earnings or depressed earnings levels. Missing data in some years, particularly during periods of negative EPS, denotes the inapplicability of this ratio when earnings were negative.
Overall, the data indicate a company with periods of strong earnings growth interrupted by significant losses, notably in 2009 and again in 2021. The share price trend, however, shows resilience and overall growth, suggesting market optimism or recovery expectations despite earnings volatility. The P/E ratio's fluctuations underscore the impact of earnings swings on valuation metrics, highlighting phases of both investor confidence and concern.
