The analysis of the financial indicators over the indicated periods reveals several notable patterns and variations.

Share Price
The share price exhibited significant volatility throughout the timeline. Initially, it rose from $15.60 in 2005 to a peak of $24.38 in 2012, followed by a sharp increase to $40.27 in 2013. After another drop and recovery, the price reached its highest level of $110.78 in 2021. However, it then experienced a decline to $84.78 by 2025. Overall, the share price showed long-term growth despite substantial fluctuations and some periods of steep decline.
Earnings Per Share (EPS)
EPS faced considerable inconsistency, with values oscillating over the years. From a low of $0.01 in 2013, the EPS surged to a high of $3.64 in 2018. Notably, there were sharp dips, such as in 2008 and 2020, reflecting possible impacts from external events or internal challenges. Despite volatility, EPS generally displayed an upward trajectory across the extended period, indicating improving profitability trends.
Price-to-Earnings Ratio (P/E)
The P/E ratio showed extreme variability, ranging from very high figures—such as 7312.64 in 2013 due to the exceptionally low EPS that year—to more moderate values between 18 and 51 in most other years. Elevated P/E ratios suggest periods of high market expectations relative to earnings, whereas lower values indicate more balanced valuation. The P/E ratio spiked again in 2020 at 118.26, possibly reflecting an earnings dip during that time, which affected valuation metrics.

In summary, the financial data illustrates a company experiencing growth with notable volatility in share price and earnings, especially during periods potentially influenced by broader economic conditions or company-specific events. The P/E ratio extremes correspond closely to EPS fluctuations, underlining the sensitivity of market valuation to earnings performance. Despite these variations, long-term trends reveal recovery and overall increases in key financial measures.
