Share Price Trends
The share price exhibited significant fluctuations over the examined period. Initially, it increased from $25.67 to a peak of $36.87 by late 2010, followed by moderate volatility in subsequent years. A notable upward trajectory occurred between 2012 and 2015, reaching a high of $118.67. Despite a decline afterward, the price stabilized around $100-$150 from 2015 to 2021. However, post-2021, there was a sharp decrease to approximately $94, followed by a slight recovery, but the price remained below earlier peak levels in the final years.
Sales per Share Development
Sales per share showed a consistent upward trend throughout the period, rising steadily from $16.61 in 2005 to $52.89 in 2025. This growth reflects continual expansion in revenue on a per-share basis, with only minor setbacks around 2019 and 2020, which was a temporary dip before resuming growth. The consistent increase suggests underlying improvements in operational performance or revenue generation.
Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio Analysis
The Price-to-Sales ratio varied substantially over time, beginning at 1.55 in 2005. It spiked to a low of 0.92 in 2008, coinciding with the share price dip, indicating potential undervaluation or lower market confidence. Subsequently, the ratio increased steadily, reaching peaks above 4 in 2019-2020, signifying higher valuation relative to sales. Post-2020, the P/S ratio declined sharply to around 2 in the most recent years, reflecting either adjustments in market expectations, changes in share price, or improvements in sales.
Overall Insights
The overall data indicate that while the company achieved continuous growth in sales per share over the two decades, market valuation reflected by the share price and P/S ratio was subject to considerable volatility, influenced by external economic factors and market sentiment. The elevated P/S ratios in the late 2010s and 2020 suggest periods of high investor optimism relative to sales, whereas recent adjustments imply a market correction or more conservative valuation stance despite ongoing sales growth. The divergence between increasing sales per share and fluctuating share price and valuation metrics underscores the complex interplay between operational performance and market dynamics.
