php associative array, preg_match and loop

I have an associative array from which I extract two numbers with regular expression

<?php           
 $link = array (
 "model_one" => "Only 50.95 usd for 2 years or 700.30 usd.",
 "model_two" => "Only 70.95 usd for 2 years or 900.20 usd.");
 foreach ($link as $key=>$links) {
    $pattern = '/.\d+(?:\.\d{2})?((?<=[0-9])(?= usd))/';
    preg_match_all($pattern,$links,$result);
    $final = array();
    foreach($result[0] as $k=>$v) {
    $final[]=$v;
    echo $final[0]; // print 50.95 50.95 70.95 70.95    
    }
 }
?>

I was not able to retrieve every single number associated to key

Example:

model_one 50.95
model_one 700.30
model_two 70.95
model_two 900.20

You need to loop through the array containing matched values:

foreach ($link as $key => $links) {
    $pattern = '/\d+(?:\.\d{2})?((?<=[0-9])(?= usd))/';
    preg_match_all($pattern,$links,$result);

    foreach ($result[0] as $amt) {
        echo "$key $amt\n";
    }
}

Note that I've also removed the period character (.) from the beginning of your regular expression. It will match any character that's not a space. This will cause the capture to contain a space at the beginning.

Output:

model_one 50.95
model_one 700.30
model_two 70.95
model_two 900.20
