The analyzed financial data reveals several notable trends and fluctuations across the observed periods.

Share Price
The share price exhibited significant volatility over the years. It started relatively low around 13.92 US$ in 2005, declining markedly to a low of 3.39 US$ by October 2008. Following this trough, the price showed recovery and growth, reaching peaks above 70 US$ in 2021. There was a notable drop in 2022 back to approximately 52.91 US$ before rising again sharply to 102.25 US$ by 2024, indicating periods of strong market confidence interspersed with corrections.
Sales per Share
Sales per share also experienced fluctuations, beginning near 7.9 US$ in 2005 and dipping to 5.65 US$ in 2009. A significant upward trend followed, with sales per share peaking at 28.29 US$ in 2022. However, 2023 saw a sharp decline to 14.15 US$, before rebounding to 22.65 US$ in 2024. These changes suggest variability in revenue generation or share count changes affecting per-share sales.
Price-to-Sales Ratio (P/S)
The P/S ratio demonstrated substantial variation, reflective of both share price and sales per share shifts. Starting at 1.76 in 2005, the ratio fell to a low of 0.44 in 2008, coinciding with the share price decline. Subsequently, it generally increased, reaching very high levels of 4.94 in 2023 and slightly lower at 4.51 in 2024. This implies the market valued the company's sales more highly relative to share price in recent years, which could reflect investor optimism or expectations of future growth.
