The data reveals several notable trends in the financial performance over the observed periods.

Share Price
The share price demonstrates significant volatility over the years. Initially, there is a gradual increase from approximately $72.69 in early 2006, peaking at $148.09 in early 2015. A remarkable surge is evident between 2017 and 2019, where the share price more than doubles from around $163.81 to $404.91. However, this is followed by a notable decline starting in 2019. By 2021, the share price drops substantially to $195.84 and continues to hover around the $175-$211 range through to early 2025, indicating heightened market uncertainty or external challenges impacting valuation.
Earnings per Share (EPS)
EPS fluctuates markedly throughout the time frame. Initially, EPS is relatively stable, ranging between approximately $2.81 and $7.99 from 2006 to 2017, with a peak of $18.51 in early 2019. After 2019, EPS values become negative, signalling financial distress or significant losses. The negative EPS deepens notably in 2021 to -$20.37 and continues with negative values in subsequent years, reaching -$15.83 by early 2025. This downturn suggests that the company faced substantial profitability challenges starting around 2020.
Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio
The P/E ratio exhibits considerable variability and is missing in later years. Initially, the ratio ranges widely from as low as approximately 11.63 in 2009 to as high as 33.4 in 2010, with several fluctuations suggesting shifts in market sentiment relative to earnings. The data is incomplete for later periods; however, the earlier fluctuations may reflect varying investor expectations and earnings performance. The absence of P/E values following 2019 likely correlates with negative EPS, rendering the P/E metric non-applicable in those years.

Overall, the data indicates a period of growth and rising market valuation until around 2019, followed by a sharp decline in both share price and profitability. The negative earnings post-2019 and diminished share price suggest significant operational or market challenges affecting the company’s financial health during those later years. The early periods show moderate stability with some growth, while the later years reflect volatility and downturns.
