- Share Price Trend
- The share price demonstrated significant volatility over the observed period. Initial values declined from $34.32 in early 2006 to a low of $17.01 in early 2009, reflecting a sharp downturn likely corresponding to broader market or sector-specific challenges. Subsequently, the price recovered, peaking at $54.88 in early 2017, before falling again to $31.4 by early 2019. This cyclical pattern indicates periods of strong growth interrupted by notable declines.
- Earnings Per Share (EPS) Trend
- EPS exhibited considerable fluctuation with some years showing strong profitability and others indicating losses. EPS peaked at $4.12 in early 2015 but dropped sharply thereafter, turning negative in early 2016 (-$0.78) and early 2017 (-$6.65). Recovery is apparent by early 2019 with EPS rebounding to $1.9. The negative EPS values suggest periods of operational or financial stress impacting profitability.
- Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio Analysis
- The P/E ratio varied widely over the years, starting at 15.03 and declining to as low as 9.1 in early 2008. The ratio then increased substantially, reaching over 24 in 2010 and 2011, reflecting market optimism relative to earnings at that time. Notably, P/E values are missing during the years with negative EPS (2016-2018), consistent with the inability to calculate meaningful ratios when earnings are negative. The ratio resurfaces at 16.54 in 2019, indicating a relatively moderate valuation compared to earnings.
- Overall Observations
- The financial data reveals a company experiencing cycles of growth and contraction, with share price and earnings demonstrating sensitivity to external and internal factors. The sharp EPS decline and corresponding share price drop post-2015 suggest a challenging period possibly involving operational inefficiencies or market disruptions. The partial recovery in EPS and share price by 2019 points to some regained stability. Variability in the P/E ratio suggests fluctuating investor confidence and changing earnings outlook across the years.
