The analyzed financial data reveals several notable trends in the share price, operating profit per share, and the price-to-operating profit (P/OP) ratio over the specified periods.

Share Price
The share price experienced a significant decline from $26.24 in March 2017 to a low of $7.95 in February 2019, indicating a period of considerable market value reduction. Subsequently, the share price showed recovery, reaching $16.57 by May 2020 and further increasing to $28.52 in May 2021. After a slight downturn to $24.63 in May 2022, a dramatic increase occurred, culminating in a peak of $184.77 by May 2024. This sharp rise in recent years suggests heightened investor confidence or other positive developments affecting the company's valuation.
Operating Profit Per Share
The operating profit per share displayed modest fluctuations initially, rising from $0.51 in March 2017 to $0.71 in March 2018, then slightly decreasing to $0.54 in February 2019. It held relatively stable around $0.6 in May 2020, before experiencing a significant drop to $0.18 in May 2021. Recovery followed, with an increase to $0.57 in May 2022. This growth trend continued substantially, reaching $1.27 in May 2023 and doubling to $2.68 by May 2024. The recent upward trajectory indicates improvements in operational efficiency or profitability per share.
Price to Operating Profit (P/OP) Ratio
The P/OP ratio varied considerably throughout the periods. Initially, it decreased from 51.91 in March 2017 to a low of 14.84 in February 2019, reflecting a potentially more attractive valuation relative to operating profit. However, the ratio rose sharply to 156.71 in May 2021, coinciding with the dip in operating profit per share and a still moderate share price, which suggests a higher valuation multiple despite weaker earnings. Following this peak, the ratio decreased to 43.25 in May 2022 but then increased again to 82.33 in May 2023 and slightly declined to 69.05 by May 2024. These fluctuations imply changing market perceptions of profitability value and possibly increased share price volatility relative to earnings.
