The provided financial data reveals several notable trends and fluctuations in the share price, earnings per share (EPS), and price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio over the analyzed periods.

Share Price Trends
The share price exhibited considerable volatility throughout the years. Initially, an upward trend was observed, rising from $60.81 in early 2006 to a peak of $106.04 in early 2008. Subsequently, there was a sharp decline to $43.67 by early 2009, followed by a moderate recovery phase peaking again around $90.35 in early 2011. From 2011 onwards, the price displayed a general downward trajectory with intermittent recoveries, reaching a low point of $20.33 in early 2016. Since then, the share price showed a gradual recovery again, with notable increases to $53.85 in early 2022 and $57.23 in early 2023.
Earnings Per Share (EPS) Patterns
EPS demonstrated significant variability, including multiple instances of negative earnings. Early earnings were positive and growing, increasing from $6.61 in 2006 to a peak of $11.64 in 2012. However, EPS turned negative several times, notably declining to -$4.85 in 2009 and exhibiting severe declines such as -$32.75 in 2016. Despite these negative periods, positive recoveries occurred, reaching $10.66 in 2011 and again more moderately positive values towards the later years—$4.24 in 2022 and $9.20 in 2023. This pattern indicates considerable earnings instability with occasional performance recoveries.
Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio Observations
The P/E ratio data is incomplete but provides insight into valuation fluctuations when available. Ratios fluctuated between approximately 4.33 and 17.91 during the periods reported. Notably, lower P/E values correspond to times when EPS was recovering from losses or when share prices were depressed relative to earnings, such as early 2020 (P/E of 4.33). Conversely, higher P/E ratios align with periods of higher share price relative to earnings, exemplified by values around 16.33 and 17.91 in 2014 and 2018 respectively. Missing values correspond primarily to periods with negative EPS, during which P/E ratios are not typically computed or reported.

Overall, the data reflects a company experiencing periods of considerable financial stress and recovery. The volatile share price aligns with swings in earnings performance, reflecting market responses to underlying profitability changes. The intermittent negative EPS and subsequent recoveries suggest challenges in maintaining consistent profitability. Corresponding fluctuations in the P/E ratio further underscore changing investor sentiment and valuation in response to these earnings patterns.
