Share Price Trend
The share price exhibited a declining trend from 2014 through 2017, dropping from 54.83 US$ to a low of 16.06 US$. Subsequently, there was a notable recovery reaching a peak of 71.79 US$ in 2021, followed by another decline to 36.24 US$ in 2022. This pattern indicates periods of significant volatility with an overall reduction relative to the initial price in 2014 by the end of the observed period.
Sales Per Share Trend
Sales per share showed consistent growth throughout the observed years. Starting at 1.13 US$ in 2014, the figure increased steadily each year, reaching 6.34 US$ by 2022. This continuous upward trend suggests improving operational performance and revenue generation capabilities over time.
Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio Trend
The P/S ratio displayed considerable fluctuation over the period. It began at an elevated level of 48.52 in 2014, sharply declining to 4.61 by 2017, indicating a significant reduction in valuation relative to sales. Following this trough, the ratio climbed again to 15.42 in 2021 before dropping back to 5.71 in 2022. These variations suggest changing investor sentiment and valuation multiples relative to sales performance, highlighting periods of both optimism and caution.
Overall Insights
The data reveals a company experiencing variable market valuation with discernible growth in its fundamental sales performance. While sales per share steadily improved indicating core business growth, the share price and P/S ratio trends reflect fluctuating investor confidence and market dynamics. The pronounced volatility in the P/S ratio alongside the share price suggests that market valuation did not consistently align with underlying sales improvements during the period analyzed.
