- Share Price Trend
- The share price exhibited overall growth from 10.61 US$ in March 2006 to a peak of 115.37 US$ in February 2021, reflecting significant appreciation over the 15-year period. There were fluctuations within this span, with a notable dip in February 2009 to 8.16 US$, likely reflecting market-wide downturns. Following this, the price generally increased, reaching its highest level in 2021 before declining to 95.56 US$ in February 2022, indicating some recent market correction or volatility.
- Sales Per Share Performance
- Sales per share displayed a steady upward trend, increasing from 5.67 US$ in 2006 to 24.88 US$ by 2022. There was a mild fluctuation in 2008 and 2010 but the general trajectory remained positive. The consistent growth in sales per share suggests expanding revenue generation relative to the number of shares outstanding, indicative of business growth or improved operational efficiency over the analyzed period.
- Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio Analysis
- The P/S ratio demonstrated variable movement across the years. Initially, it hovered around 1.87 to 2.22 between 2006 and 2008, before experiencing a sharp drop to 1.07 in 2009, coinciding with the global financial crisis. Post-2009, the ratio generally increased, peaking at 7.24 in 2020, which suggests growing investor optimism and increasing valuation multiples relative to sales. However, after reaching the peak, the ratio declined to 3.84 in 2022, signaling a valuation adjustment or a reversion to more conservative market perceptions of sales valuation multiples.
- Overall Insights
- The data indicates a company with strong sales growth driving higher share prices over time, notwithstanding temporary setbacks corresponding to broader market conditions. The P/S ratio's rise and subsequent decline imply shifts in investor sentiment and valuation standards, possibly influenced by market cycles and company-specific developments. The combination of increasing sales per share and fluctuating but overall elevated share prices suggests a positive long-term outlook tempered by interim volatility and valuation recalibrations.
