Share Price Trend
The share price exhibited significant fluctuations over the examined period. Initially, it increased from $39.75 in March 2006 to a peak of $46.29 in early 2007 before declining sharply to $17.50 by early 2009. Subsequently, there was a recovery phase with the price rising to a high of $156.78 in early 2020. After this peak, the share price underwent a substantial correction, dropping to $64.52 by the latest recorded date in early 2023. The data shows notable volatility, especially during periods of broader market stress.
Operating Profit Per Share (Operating Profit/Shares)
Operating profit per share followed a pattern of volatility and decline across the timeline. Early values show a rise from $2.28 in 2006 to $3.83 in 2008, before falling markedly to $0.74 in 2010. The subsequent years saw a moderate recovery and relative stability, peaking at around $4.52 in 2019. However, there was a sharp fall afterwards, culminating in a negative value of -$27.23 in 2023. This indicates significant operational challenges or extraordinary losses during the most recent period examined.
Price to Operating Profit Ratio (P/OP)
The P/OP ratio showed considerable variability. The ratio started high at 17.43 in 2006 and declined to below 10 in the period of 2008-2009, reflecting potentially undervalued prices relative to operating profits or weaker profits with stable prices. From 2010 onwards, the ratio increased again, peaking dramatically at nearly 151 in early 2021, and then falling to around 53.3 in 2022. The very high ratios in the most recent years suggest that the market price was high relative to operating profit, coinciding with the steep decline in operating profit per share and overall share price corrections.
Summary
The overall financial data presents a company experiencing significant profit volatility and corresponding fluctuations in share price. The operating profit per share shows a downward trend in the latter years, culminating in substantial losses. Share price reflected recovery cycles but ultimately faced considerable contractions following peaks. The P/OP ratio indicates that the company's shares may have been overvalued relative to profits at times, especially in the recent pandemic and post-pandemic periods. The pronounced negative operating profit in the most recent year suggests serious operational or extraordinary issues requiring further investigation.
