- Share Price Trends
- The share price exhibited significant volatility from 2006 to 2025. Initially, it started at a low level around 1.08 USD, experienced gradual increases with some fluctuations, notably dropping in 2009 to approximately 1.07 USD. A strong upward trajectory is visible from 2014 onwards, with prices rising from 10.85 USD to a peak exceeding 57 USD by 2025. This suggests an overall increased market valuation and investor confidence in recent years.
- Sales Per Share Trends
- Sales per share demonstrated a consistent upward trend throughout the entire period analyzed. Beginning at 0.39 USD in 2006, it increased almost steadily, reaching 8.35 USD by 2025. There were no notable declines, indicating steady revenue growth relative to the number of shares outstanding and potentially reflecting expanding business scale or improving operational effectiveness.
- Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio Analysis
- The P/S ratio showed considerable fluctuations, reflecting changes in market valuation relative to sales. Early values hovered between 2.5 and 3.2, with a notable dip to around 1.29 in 2009, paralleling the dip in share price during that period. From 2010 onwards, the ratio exhibited strong growth with peaks over 7 in 2021 and 2024, suggesting increased investor willingness to pay a premium for sales. However, some volatility remained, with periodic declines after peaks.
- Overall Financial Insights
- The data indicates a growing and strengthening financial position with respect to sales generation per share and equity market valuation over the long term. Periods of market price correction were observed, notably around the 2008–2009 financial crisis, impacting both share price and valuation multiples. The resilience and eventual substantial rise in share price along with consistent sales growth demonstrate enhanced company performance and improved investor perception over time.
