The operating profit margin of American Woodmark Corporation over the period from April 2021 to April 2025 demonstrates significant fluctuations, reflecting changes in operational efficiency and profitability.

In April 2021, the operating profit margin stood at 6.58%, indicating a modest but positive level of operating profitability relative to net sales. However, in April 2022, the margin declined sharply to -3.27%, signifying an operational loss and potential challenges in cost management, sales performance, or increased expenses during that fiscal year.

By April 2023, the operating profit margin recovered to 6.60%, returning to a positive territory comparable to the prior-year level, which suggests a stabilization or improvement in operating performance. The positive margin continued to strengthen through April 2024, reaching 8.74%, indicating enhanced operating efficiency and profitability. This upward trend reflects effective management controls, cost containment, or favorable sales conditions contributing to increased operating income relative to sales.

While the margin slightly decreases to 8.20% by April 2025, it remains substantially higher than the low point in April 2022 and indicates sustained operational profitability. Overall, the company's operating profit margin exhibits resilience and growth following the downturn, with a notable recovery phase between 2022 and 2024, and maintains a majority of the gains into 2025.
