The financial valuation metrics from 2012 to 2017 exhibit a cyclical pattern characterized by initial growth, a significant contraction in 2015, and a subsequent recovery. The close correlation between the market value of common equity and the overall enterprise value suggests that equity fluctuations served as the primary driver of the company's total valuation throughout this period.
