The analyzed financial data reveals a series of trends over nearly two decades, focusing on share price, sales per share, and the price-to-sales (P/S) ratio.

Share Price
The share price exhibits notable fluctuations with an overall upward trajectory. Initially, the share price rose from $25.67 in late 2005 to a peak of $36.87 in 2010, followed by some volatility. A significant increase is observed from 2012 onwards, reaching a maximum near $151.34 in 2021. After 2021, the price declines sharply to around $94.69 by late 2022 and stabilizes slightly around $94.45 in late 2023 before increasing to $109.12 in 2024. This pattern suggests periods of growth interspersed with sharp corrections, reflecting changing market conditions or company-specific factors.
Sales per Share
Sales per share have shown a generally consistent upward trend over the period. Starting from $16.61 in 2005, the figure gradually increased with minor fluctuations, reaching $39.92 in 2018. Slight declines occur around 2019 and 2020, but sales recover to $50.45 by 2024. This steady growth in sales per share points to expanding revenues on a per-share basis, indicative of increasing business scale or improved operational efficiency.
Price-to-Sales (P/S) Ratio
The P/S ratio exhibits considerable variability over time. It begins at 1.55 in 2005, peaks at 1.99 in 2006, then falls to a low of 0.92 in 2008, coinciding with lower share prices during the global financial crisis. Subsequently, the ratio climbs steadily, reaching a high of approximately 4.13 in 2020, signaling a significant market premium relative to sales. From 2021 onwards, the P/S ratio declines sharply to about 2.09 by 2023, indicating a reduction in valuation multiples despite stable or slightly increasing sales per share. This reduction suggests a market reassessment or adjustment to more conservative valuation levels.

Overall, the data reflects a company that has achieved revenue growth per share consistently, while its share price and valuation multiples have experienced greater volatility. The declining price-to-sales ratio in recent years, despite rising sales per share, may point to changing investor sentiment or broader market influences affecting the stock's valuation.
