Starting with the gross profit margin, which measures the proportion of revenue remaining after deducting direct production costs, the company experienced a decrease from 16.03% in 2019 to 14.50% in 2023.

Moving on to the operating profit margin, which reflects the company's ability to generate profit from its core operations, AMKOR's margin decreased from 12.65% in 2022 to 7.23% in 2023. This suggests a decline in operational efficiency or an increase in operating expenses during the period.

Analyzing the pretax margin, which represents the proportion of pre-tax income to total revenue, AMKOR saw a decrease from 12.08% in 2022 to 6.83% in 2023. This could indicate a higher tax burden or a decline in profitability before taxes.
