The analysis of the financial data reveals several key trends over the examined periods.

Share Price
The share price exhibits a generally upward trend from 50.86 US$ in 2006, reaching a peak of 505.69 US$ in early 2023. There are notable fluctuations, including a significant dip in 2009 to 40.54 US$, likely reflecting external economic conditions during that period. Following this, the share price recovered and showed strong growth, surpassing previous highs in subsequent years until a decline to 363.98 US$ in early 2024.
Sales per Share
Sales per share increase consistently throughout the entire period, starting from 87.32 US$ in 2006 and rising steadily to 872.79 US$ by 2024. This continuous growth indicates improving operational performance and expansion in revenue generation per share over the years without significant interruptions or declines.
Price-to-Sales Ratio (P/S)
The P/S ratio shows variability with an initial decline from 0.58 in 2006 to a low of 0.24 in 2009, paralleling the drop in share price. Post-2009, the ratio gradually improves and peaks at 0.76 in 2020, reflecting stronger investor confidence and valuation relative to sales. However, it declines sharply afterward, falling to 0.42 by 2024, which may indicate a correction in market valuation or increasing sales outpacing share price growth.

Overall, the steady growth in sales per share suggests robust operational performance and market demand. Although the share price has shown significant appreciation over the long term, recent price fluctuations and the decreasing P/S ratio in the last year suggest a potential reevaluation by investors or market volatility. The data indicates strong fundamentals but also highlights the need for attention to market sentiment and valuation metrics going forward.
