The data reveals several notable trends in share price, operating profit per share, and the price to operating profit ratio (P/OP) for the company over the analyzed period.

Share Price
The share price exhibited an overall growth trend from 2005 until around 2015, rising from $37.23 in 2005 to a peak of $71.19 in 2015. This growth phase was followed by a sharp decline, with the share price dropping significantly to $6.59 in 2020. Although a recovery to $26.42 occurred in 2021, the price again decreased to $16.34 in 2022, indicating considerable volatility and an overall weakening in market valuation after 2015.
Operating Profit Per Share
Operating profit per share increased steadily from 2.69 US$ in 2005 to a high of 9.08 US$ in 2016. This upward trend suggests consistent improvement in operational efficiency and profitability over the initial period. However, a reversal in this trend was seen from 2017 onwards, with operating profit turning negative in 2019 (-0.66 US$) and deteriorating further to -5.53 US$ in 2020. Despite some improvement to -3.09 US$ in 2021, it declined again to -5.10 US$ in 2022, showing persistent operational challenges in recent years.
Price to Operating Profit Ratio (P/OP)
The P/OP ratio generally declined from 13.82 in 2005 to around 3.23 in 2018, reflecting an increasing market optimism over operational performance as the share price rose moderately slower than operating profit per share. However, there is a lack of data for this ratio post-2018, likely due to negative operating profits which preclude meaningful P/OP calculations. The absence of this ratio in the later years further highlights the severe operational difficulties faced.

In summary, the company experienced a sustained period of growth and strong profitability through 2015-2016, followed by a pronounced decline in both share price and operating profitability starting around 2017. The financial indicators collectively point to significant operational and market challenges in the recent years ending in 2022.
