- Share Price
- The share price demonstrated a generally upward trajectory over the observed period, rising from $22.12 in early 2006 to peak levels above $240 in early 2025. Notable fluctuations occurred around 2009 and 2016, with a decrease to $24.64 and $75.03 respectively, reflecting periods of volatility. After each downturn, the share price recovered and reached new highs, indicating strong overall growth. The sharp increase beginning around 2017 through 2022 suggests enhanced investor confidence or improved company performance during those years. However, a slight decline is observed towards the final recorded date in 2025.
- Sales Per Share
- Sales per share exhibited a steady increase from $12.69 in 2006 to over $40 by 2025. The growth was relatively consistent with minor fluctuations, including a slight dip around 2010 and again in 2021. Despite these decreases, the general trend suggests an increase in revenue generation per share over time, supporting the share price appreciation. The peak sales per share values around 2019 to 2025 indicate sustained operational performance and potential improvement in sales efficiency.
- Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio
- The P/S ratio generally increased across the analyzed years, moving from 1.74 in 2006 to values above 6.0 by 2025. This upward trend indicates that the market valuation grew at a faster pace than the sales per share, reflecting heightened investor optimism or perceived future growth potential. The ratio experienced dips coinciding with share price declines, particularly in 2009 and 2016, but recovered strongly thereafter. The ratio's growth suggests improved investor sentiment towards the company’s future earnings potential relative to its current sales.
- Overall Trends and Insights
- The data reveals consistent growth in both share price and sales per share over nearly two decades. Periodic dips align with broader market or economic conditions, yet the company's recovery and overall upward trends emphasize business resilience. The rising P/S ratio indicates an increasing premium placed by the market on the company's sales, potentially due to expectations of improved profitability, market positioning, or strategic initiatives. While the share price and sales per share do not move perfectly in tandem, their combined growth patterns suggest a strengthening financial position and positive market perception.
