The price-to-book value (P/BV) ratio exhibits significant fluctuations over the observed period. Initially, the ratio demonstrates an increasing trend from 2006 to 2007, followed by a decline in 2008. A period of volatility follows, with a substantial increase in 2010 and 2011 before decreasing again in 2012 and 2013. The ratio then experiences a dramatic surge in 2017 and 2018, peaking at exceptionally high levels, before declining sharply in subsequent years. Recent years show continued volatility, with negative book values per share impacting the ratio’s calculation and interpretation.

Initial Period (2006-2008)
From 2006 to 2007, the P/BV ratio increased from 5.26 to 15.15, indicating growing investor confidence relative to the company’s net asset value. However, this was followed by a decrease to 7.24 in 2008, potentially reflecting early concerns related to broader economic conditions.
Volatility and Recovery (2009-2013)
The period from 2009 to 2013 is characterized by instability. The P/BV ratio shows a large increase in 2010 and 2011, reaching 20.59 and 19.33 respectively. This is followed by a decline to 9.78 in 2012 and a further decrease to 6.50 in 2013, suggesting fluctuating investor sentiment and potentially changing perceptions of the company’s asset value.
Dramatic Increase and Subsequent Decline (2014-2018)
The P/BV ratio experienced an extraordinary increase between 2014 and 2018, rising from 12.04 to an exceptionally high 569.92. This surge is largely attributable to a combination of increasing share price and a decrease in book value per share. The ratio then declined significantly to 674.83 in 2019.
Recent Years (2020-2026)
From 2020 onwards, the P/BV ratio demonstrates considerable volatility and is often difficult to interpret due to negative book values per share. The book value per share became negative, resulting in undefined or unreliable P/BV ratios for 2020 and 2021. While the book value per share becomes positive again in 2025, the P/BV ratio remains relatively moderate at 33.65.

The substantial fluctuations in the P/BV ratio suggest that investor perception of the company’s value relative to its book value has been highly dynamic over the period. The recent negative book values per share raise concerns about the company’s financial health and the reliability of this ratio as a valuation metric.
