The analysis of the provided financial data reveals several noteworthy trends over the six-year period.

Share Price
The share price displayed considerable volatility. It initially increased significantly from $32.85 in 2020 to a peak of $54.40 in 2021, followed by a substantial decline to $34.87 in 2022 and slightly declining further to $34.20 in 2023. Subsequently, it experienced a marked recovery, nearly doubling to $81.39 in 2024, with a minor decrease to $79.42 in 2025. This pattern emphasizes significant market fluctuations."""
Sales per Share
The sales per share showed a generally upward trend over the period. Starting at $8.21 in 2020, it dipped slightly to $5.99 in 2021 but then increased steadily each year, reaching $8.93 in 2022, $15.86 in 2023, $17.95 in 2024, and $21.05 in 2025. This demonstrates strong growth in the company's revenue generation on a per-share basis, particularly from 2022 onwards.
Price-to-Sales Ratio (P/S)
The P/S ratio fluctuated but exhibited an overall declining trend after peaking in 2021. Beginning at 4.00 in 2020, it more than doubled to 9.07 in 2021, indicating possibly higher market valuation relative to sales. However, it declined sharply to 3.90 in 2022 and continued dropping to 2.16 in 2023. The ratio then partially recovered to 4.53 in 2024 before moderately decreasing to 3.77 in 2025. This suggests that while sales per share increased significantly, market valuation multiples varied and were generally lower than the peak in 2021.

In summary, the sales per share growth was strong and consistent in the later years, whereas the share price showed considerable volatility, with an initial rise, a mid-period dip, and a final marked recovery. The price-to-sales ratio suggests that market valuation reaction to increasing sales was not linear, as it first expanded considerably, then normalized to moderate levels despite sustained sales growth.
