Share price trend
The share price exhibited notable fluctuations over the analyzed period. From May 2005 to May 2007, there was a consistent upward trajectory, increasing from $37.68 to $59.78. This was followed by a modest decline in May 2008 to $57.36, and a sharper drop in May 2009 to $38.18, indicating a period of market or company-specific challenges. After that, the share price recovered significantly, reaching a peak of $229.55 in May 2015 before decreasing to $172.70 by May 2016.
Book value per share (BVPS) trend
Book value per share showed a steady increase throughout the period. Beginning at $17.58 in May 2005, BVPS rose gradually each year, reaching $39.66 by May 2016. This reflects consistent growth in the company's net asset value on a per-share basis, indicating strengthening of the underlying equity base over time.
Price-to-Book Value Ratio (P/BV) trend
The P/BV ratio displayed variability aligned with changes in share price relative to book value. Starting at 2.14 in May 2005, the ratio peaked at 2.83 in May 2007 before dipping considerably to 1.67 in May 2009, coinciding with the low share price in that year. Subsequently, the ratio increased sharply, reaching a high of 6.64 in May 2015, then declined to 4.35 by May 2016. These movements suggest changing market perceptions of the company’s growth prospects and risk profile over time.
Overall observations
The overall data suggest a company experiencing growth in intrinsic value as evidenced by the rising book value per share, despite periods of market volatility reflected in the share price and P/BV ratio fluctuations. The substantial increase in share price and P/BV ratio post-2009 implies heightened investor confidence and potentially improved performance or market conditions. However, the drop in these metrics in the final year indicates some market correction or reassessment of company valuation.
