Fixed asset turnover 9.56 7.57 7.96 7.66 8.59
Total asset turnover 0.42 0.38 0.38 0.32 0.46

For Artivion Inc, the fixed asset turnover has shown an increasing trend over the past five years, from 8.59 in 2019 to 9.23 in 2023.

Overall, the increasing trend in both fixed asset turnover and total asset turnover ratios suggests that Artivion Inc has been improving its efficiency in generating sales from both its fixed and total assets. However, the company may need to further investigate its total asset turnover to ensure optimal utilization of its assets to drive revenue growth.
