Share Price Trend
The share price demonstrated moderate fluctuations from 2006 through 2009, rising from $29.55 to $29.10. From 2010 onward, there was a significant upward trend, peaking markedly at $298.07 in 2016. Following the peak, the share price experienced a sharp decline until 2018, falling to $164.04, with slight fluctuations thereafter and an increase to $198 in 2020.
Book Value per Share (BVPS) Trend
The book value per share steadily increased over the entire period, rising from $18.95 in 2006 to a peak of $227.29 in 2017. Subsequent to this peak, a gradual decline is observed, ending at $176.82 in 2020. Despite the decline after 2017, the BVPS value in 2020 remains significantly higher compared to the earlier years, indicating consistent growth in net asset value per share over the long term.
Price-to-Book Value (P/BV) Ratio Trend
The P/BV ratio remained relatively stable and moderate, around 1.5 to 2.1, from 2006 through 2011. From 2012, the ratio surged significantly reaching its highest point of 4.11 in 2014. Following this peak, the ratio experienced a marked decrease, falling below 1.0 in both 2018 and 2019, suggesting undervaluation relative to book value during these years. In 2020, the ratio rose again to 1.12 but remained lower compared to the early 2010s.
Insight on Valuation and Market Perception
The share price's strong increase until 2016, aligned with rising BVPS, suggests robust growth and positive market sentiment leading up to that year. However, the subsequent decline in both share price and the P/BV ratio indicates a reassessment of value by the market, possibly reflecting concerns about future profitability or other external factors. Notably, the drop of P/BV below 1.0 in the late 2010s represents a period when the market valued the company below its book value, highlighting a potential period of undervaluation.
Overall Financial Position
Despite volatility in market valuation multiples, the continuous increase in book value per share over the majority of the period indicates strengthening asset base and accumulated earnings. The decoupling between share price and book value post-2016 suggests increased market volatility or changes in investor expectations during that time.
