Try declaring the value type for that property in your data file, e.g.,
{
items: [
...
],
properties: {
"price": {
valueType: "number"
}
}
}

If you define that table, then use ex:formats and define the value types
for the properties (see above).
<div ex:role="view" ex:viewClass="Tabular" ...>
<table>
<tr>
<td ex:formats="number { decimal-digits: 2 }">
Only <span ex:content=".price"></span>!!!
</td>
...
</tr>
</table>
</div>
I haven't tested that case, so let me know if it works for you.
