Operating profit margin = Operating income ÷ Revenue
= $7,867,000K ÷ $27,176,000K
= 28.95%
Applied Materials Inc's operating profit margin has shown a slight decline over the past few years, with a decrease from 30.20% as of October 31, 2022, to 28.95% as of October 31, 2024. This indicates that the company's ability to generate profit from its core operations has slightly weakened over this period. Despite the fluctuations, the operating profit margin has largely hovered around the high twenties percentage range, reflecting consistent operational efficiency overall. However, management may need to closely monitor and potentially take measures to sustain or improve this key financial metric in the future.
