The share price demonstrates notable volatility over the examined period, starting at $13.92 and experiencing a significant decline to $3.39 by late 2008. From 2009 onward, there is a general upward trend with some fluctuations, culminating in a substantial increase to $187.83 by 2025. This indicates strong growth in market valuation during the latter years, particularly from 2020 onwards.
Book value per share (BVPS) shows an initial decline from $9.46 in 2005 to a low of $5.48 in 2009, indicative of challenges affecting the company's net asset base. From 2010, BVPS recovers steadily, rising to $48.26 by 2025. This sustained growth suggests improvements in the company's asset base or earnings retention over time, reflecting stronger financial health.
The price-to-book value (P/BV) ratio exhibits considerable variation, beginning at 1.47 in 2005 and dropping sharply to 0.42 in 2008. This decline implies that the market valued the company well below its book value during the financial downturn. Subsequently, the ratio fluctuates but demonstrates an overall increasing trend from 2012 onward, reaching 3.89 by 2025. The rising P/BV in recent years indicates growing investor confidence and willingness to pay a premium over book value, potentially driven by positive future growth expectations or improved profitability.
- Share Price
- Initial volatility with a trough during 2008; robust growth in the 2010s and strong acceleration post-2020.
- Book Value Per Share (BVPS)
- Decline to 2009 followed by consistent recovery and growth, signifying strengthening fundamentals.
- Price-to-Book Value Ratio (P/BV)

The increasing share price and P/BV ratio in recent years denote rising investor optimism and perceived value beyond tangible book assets, suggesting positive market sentiment regarding the company’s future prospects.
