The financial performance from 2006 to 2020 is characterized by a stark divergence between share price appreciation and operational profitability. While the market valuation experienced significant growth over the first decade, the underlying operating profit per share underwent a severe contraction, eventually shifting into a sustained period of deficit.

Share Price Evolution
A long-term upward trajectory in share price is evident from 2006 through 2016, rising from 29.55 US$ to a peak of 298.07 US$. This period of growth was followed by a correction and subsequent volatility, with the price declining to 139.07 US$ by February 2019 before recovering to 198.00 US$ by February 2020.
Operating Profit Per Share Trends
Operational profitability remained generally positive between 2006 and 2013, despite a temporary deficit in 2007. However, a critical pivot occurred in 2014, marking the beginning of a continuous downward trend. Operating profit per share transitioned from a positive 2.51 US$ in 2013 to increasingly deep negative values, reaching a low of -18.78 US$ in 2019, indicating a substantial increase in operational losses over the latter half of the period.
Price to Operating Profit (P/OP) Analysis
During the years of positive profitability, the P/OP ratio exhibited significant volatility. The ratio decreased from 15.01 in 2006 to a low of 8.50 in 2009, before climbing sharply to a peak of 33.93 in 2013. From 2014 onward, the P/OP ratio is no longer calculable due to the persistence of negative operating profits, reflecting a fundamental shift in the company's financial structure where market valuation is no longer supported by current operating earnings.
