The analysis of the valuation metrics from 2005 to 2026 reveals three distinct phases of market valuation relative to the company's book value: a period of stability, a period of aggressive expansion, and a subsequent period of significant correction.

Valuation Stability and Moderate Growth (2005–2010)
During the initial five-year period, the Price to Book Value (P/BV) ratio remained relatively stable, fluctuating between a low of 2.93 in 2009 and a high of 4.42 in 2011. This period was characterized by a steady, incremental increase in Book Value Per Share (BVPS), which grew from 2.70 to 5.05 US$, closely tracking the moderate rise in share price.
Valuation Expansion and Peak Multiples (2011–2021)
A sustained upward trend in the P/BV ratio is observed starting in 2011, indicating that the market began assigning a significantly higher premium to the company's assets. The ratio escalated from 4.42 in 2011 to a peak of 19.79 in July 2021. This expansion was primarily driven by a rapid increase in the share price, which surged from 22.93 US$ to 159.74 US$ over the decade. While BVPS generally increased, reaching 8.07 US$ in 2021, the growth in share price far outpaced the growth in tangible book value, leading to historic valuation highs.
Valuation Correction and Normalization (2022–2026)
Following the 2021 peak, a sharp downward correction in the P/BV ratio occurred. The ratio declined from 19.79 in 2021 to 4.27 by July 2026. This contraction is attributed to a substantial decrease in the share price, which fell from 159.74 US$ to 42.77 US$. In contrast, the BVPS remained relatively resilient, fluctuating between 8.95 US$ and 10.02 US$ during the final four years of the period. The resulting P/BV of 4.27 suggests a return to valuation levels comparable to those seen in the 2005–2011 era.

Overall, the data indicates a period of extreme valuation inflation between 2018 and 2021, followed by a regression toward the mean. The divergence between the share price and the book value reached its maximum in 2021, while the subsequent convergence demonstrates a significant market repricing of the company's equity relative to its net asset value.
