- Share Price Trend
- The share price displayed notable fluctuations over the analyzed periods. Starting at $20.52 in 2006, it exhibited moderate stability around that level until 2008, then experienced a significant dip to $12.08 in 2009. A recovery phase followed, reaching a peak of $68.47 in early 2020. After this peak, the price declined sharply to $28.16 by 2023 and further dropped to $19.43 in early 2025, indicating increased volatility in recent years.
- Sales Per Share Trend
- Sales per share demonstrated an overall upward trajectory from $6.6 in 2006 to a peak of $19.41 in 2022. However, after reaching this peak, a downward movement is observable, with sales per share decreasing to $15.24 in 2023 and further to $12.26 by 2025, suggesting a possible slowdown in sales growth or revenue generation in the most recent years.
- Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio Analysis
- The P/S ratio showed considerable variability, ranging from lows near 1.58 to highs above 4.07. Initially, the ratio hovered around the 3.0 mark in the mid-2000s, dropping as low as 1.79 in 2009, coinciding with the share price decline during that period. The ratio peaked at 4.07 in 2020, which corresponds with the peak share price, reflecting potentially high market valuations relative to sales. Following 2020, the P/S ratio again declined sharply to 1.58 by 2025, indicating that the share price's decrease outpaced the decline in sales per share, potentially reflecting increased market caution or lower valuation multiples.
- Summary Insights
- The data indicates a pattern of cyclical volatility in market valuation, share price, and sales per share. The company's sales capacity strengthened significantly through 2022 but faced a downturn afterward. The share price movements amplify this volatility, particularly marked by a sharp rise and subsequent fall around 2020. The fluctuating P/S ratio highlights varied investor sentiment and valuation approaches, with notable peaks during periods of high share price. Recent trends suggest a reevaluation of the company's market prospects, given the synchronized declines in both sales per share and share price leading to a lower valuation ratio.
