Share Price Trend
The share price shows a consistent upward trend over the period analyzed, increasing from $11.6 in late 2008 to $210.14 by late 2022. There are some periods of more pronounced growth, notably between 2011 and 2019, where the share price rose from $22.7 to $179.75. Minor fluctuations occurred, such as a slight decline in 2016 and again in 2021, but overall the long-term trajectory is significantly positive.
Operating Profit Per Share
Operating profit per share experienced growth throughout the years, starting at $0.4 in 2008 and reaching $9.13 in 2022. There was a notable dip in 2012 to $0.8, which contrasts with the otherwise upward trajectory. After 2012, the metric recovered robustly, with marked increases particularly from 2016 onwards, indicating improved operational profitability on a per-share basis.
Price to Operating Profit Ratio (P/OP)
The P/OP ratio exhibited significant variability during the period. It started high at 29.22 in 2008, then declined steadily and reached a low of approximately 11.44 in 2011. A sharp spike to 44.59 occurred in 2012, which appears anomalous relative to the surrounding years, possibly reflecting the dip in operating profit per share at that time. Following 2012, the ratio fluctuated between approximately 17 and 31, with a general tendency to increase after 2016. The fluctuations suggest varying investor sentiment and changing market valuations relative to operating earnings.
Overall Insights
The data indicate substantial growth in both share price and operating profitability per share over the analyzed timeframe, despite some intermittent volatility. The share price outpaced operating profit growth, especially in the earlier years, as reflected by higher P/OP ratios during certain periods. The anomalous spikes in the P/OP ratio coincide with dips in operating profit, pointing to potential short-term operational challenges or market reactions. Post-2012, operating performance stabilized and improved steadily, which, combined with sustained share price growth, indicates a strengthening financial position. The moderate fluctuations in valuation multiples suggest balanced market expectations adapting to evolving earnings performance.
