Price to Earnings (P/E) Ratio
The P/E ratio exhibits significant volatility throughout the periods. It starts at a moderate level of 17.13 in early 2020, then sharply spikes to an extraordinarily high value of 881.78 in early 2021, indicating either a substantial drop in earnings, an extraordinary one-time event, or market exuberance. Subsequently, the ratio normalizes to a range between 22.2 and 28.69 from 2022 through 2025. This stabilization suggests a return to more typical earnings performance and market valuation norms.
Price to Operating Profit (P/OP) Ratio
This ratio shows a similar pattern to the P/E ratio, with an initial value of 12.69 in 2020, followed by a significant increase to 137.02 in 2021. This peak aligns closely with the P/E irregularity, likely reflecting an earnings or operating profit disruption. After this period, the P/OP declines markedly to more normalized levels ranging from 15.32 to 22.15 between 2022 and 2025, indicating a recovery in operating profitability relative to market price.
Price to Sales (P/S) Ratio
The P/S ratio demonstrates gradual growth over time. Starting at 1.34 in 2020, it approximately doubles to 2.48 by 2025. This trend indicates increasing market valuation relative to sales, suggesting an improving investor outlook on revenue generation or a greater willingness to pay for each dollar of sales. The growth is steady without irregular spikes, implying stable sales performance or consistent market sentiment.
Price to Book Value (P/BV) Ratio
The P/BV ratio reveals a consistent upward trend from 9.42 in 2020 to 16.63 in 2025. This steady increase indicates that the market's valuation of the company's net asset value is strengthening over time. The rising ratio could reflect improving asset quality, enhanced growth expectations, or a combination of these factors, signifying growing investor confidence in the company’s underlying value.

Share Price Trend
The share price exhibited a consistent upward trajectory over the observed period. Beginning at $46.80 in early 2020, it rose substantially to $124.93 by early 2025, indicating strong market confidence and potential growth in the company's valuation.
Earnings per Share (EPS) Trend
The EPS displayed volatility in the early part of the timeline, dipping sharply to $0.08 in early 2021 from $2.73 in early 2020. However, it recovered strongly thereafter, rising steadily to reach $4.35 by early 2025. This rebound suggests a recovery in profitability and operational performance following the sharp decline.
Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio Analysis
The P/E ratio showed significant fluctuations aligned with the EPS movements. It peaked at an exceptionally high value of 881.78 in early 2021, reflecting the very low EPS at that time and possibly market uncertainty or non-recurring impacts. Subsequently, the ratio normalized, fluctuating between approximately 22 and 29 from early 2022 onward. While this range is relatively stable, a slight increasing trend towards 28.69 by early 2025 indicates growing investor expectations of future earnings.
Overall Insights
The data reflects a company that experienced a period of earnings stress or disruption around early 2021, which heavily impacted valuation metrics. However, the subsequent recovery in EPS and the continuous rise in share price paint a picture of successful operational turnaround and strengthening investor confidence. The normalization and moderate increase in the P/E ratio further imply positive future earnings prospects being priced in by the market.

Share Price Trend
The share price demonstrates a consistent upward trajectory over the period analyzed. Starting from $46.80 in early 2020, there is a steady increase to $124.93 by early 2025. Notably, there is a marked acceleration in growth post-2022, with the share price rising from $62.00 to $124.93 within three years.
Operating Profit Per Share (OPPS)
The operating profit per share exhibits some fluctuations initially but shows a generally positive trend over the time horizon. After an initial drop to $0.48 in early 2021 from $3.69 in 2020, it recovers and grows steadily to $5.64 by early 2025. This reflects an overall improvement in profitability on a per-share basis after the dip in 2021.
Price to Operating Profit Ratio (P/OP)
The price to operating profit ratio displays significant volatility. It peaks sharply at 137.02 in early 2021, coinciding with the lowest operating profit per share, indicating a potential undervaluation or market expectation disconnect during that period. Subsequently, this ratio decreases to 15.32 in early 2022, suggesting a market correction or recovery in operational profitability, before gradually rising again to 22.15 by early 2025. This increase aligns with the rising share price despite a steadier growth in operating profits.
Insights and Observations
The share price growth outpaces operating profit per share growth, which has garnered increasing P/OP multiples in recent years. The anomalous spike in P/OP in early 2021 signals a period of market pricing inconsistency, likely driven by decreased profitability that year. The recovery and subsequent smooth increase in both share price and operating profit imply strengthening financial performance and growing investor confidence. The rising P/OP multiple from 2022 onward suggests heightened market expectations for future profitability beyond current operating profit gains.

The financial data over the examined periods indicates several noteworthy trends in terms of share price, sales per share, and the price-to-sales (P/S) ratio.

Share Price
The share price demonstrates a consistent and significant upward trend from February 1, 2020, to February 1, 2025. Starting at $46.80, the price increases steadily through each period, reaching $124.93 by 2025. This represents a nearly threefold increase over five years, indicating strong market confidence or company growth expectations.
Sales per Share
Sales per share exhibit some fluctuations but generally trend upwards. Initially, there is a notable decline from $34.83 in 2020 to $26.65 in 2021. However, from 2021 onwards, sales per share increase consistently, reaching $50.45 by 2025. This suggests a recovery and subsequent growth in revenue generation per share after the initial drop.
Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio
The P/S ratio follows an overall increasing trajectory with some variability. It starts at 1.34 in 2020, rises sharply to 2.48 in 2021, then decreases to 1.50 in 2022. After this dip, the ratio increases steadily, reaching 2.48 again by 2025. The fluctuations imply changes in market valuation relative to sales, with periods of both premium and more conservative pricing by the market.

In summary, the data shows a robust increase in share price supported by recovering and growing sales per share. The P/S ratio's variability reflects alternating market perceptions of value relative to sales throughout the years, culminating in a premium valuation as of the latest period.

The analysis of the financial data over the examined periods reveals distinct trends in the share price, book value per share, and price-to-book value ratio for the company.

Share Price
The share price demonstrates a consistent upward trajectory from February 2020 through February 2025. Starting at $46.80 in February 2020, the price increased steadily, reaching $124.93 by February 2025. This indicates strong market confidence and appreciation in the company's stock valuation over the five-year span, with notable increments particularly apparent between early 2023 and early 2025.
Book Value Per Share (BVPS)
The book value per share also shows a positive growth pattern, albeit at a more moderate pace compared to the share price. Beginning at $4.97 in February 2020, BVPS experienced slight fluctuation early in the period, with a minor dip in January 2021 to $4.84, but then increased consistently thereafter, reaching $7.51 by February 2025. This suggests gradual improvement in the company’s net asset value per share over the years captured.
Price-to-Book Value Ratio (P/BV)
The price-to-book ratio exhibits an upward trend aligned with the rising share price, increasing from 9.42 in February 2020 to 16.63 in February 2025. This increasing ratio suggests that the market is valuing the company at a higher premium relative to its book value over time. The growth in this ratio reflects escalating investor expectations and possibly enhanced confidence in future earnings potential or intangible asset value beyond the book value.

Overall, the data depicts a company whose market valuation and investor sentiment have grown substantially over the five-year period, supported by a steady increase in net asset value per share but accompanied by rising price premiums relative to book value metrics.
