The analysis of Avnet Inc.'s return on equity (ROE) over the specified period indicates significant fluctuations and a notable upward trend followed by a gradual decline.

During the fiscal year ending September 30, 2020, the company's ROE was negative at -2.43%, suggesting initial challenges in generating profits relative to shareholders' equity. This negative trend persisted through December 31, 2020, with an ROE of -1.95%, but moved toward improvement in the subsequent quarters.

Starting from March 31, 2021, there was a marked positive shift, with ROE reaching 4.06%, followed by further growth to 4.73% by June 30, 2021. The upward trajectory continued robustly through 2021 and into 2022, with ROE hitting 7.80% on September 30, 2021, then increasing to 10.82% by December 31, 2021, and further ascending to 12.47% on March 31, 2022. The trend persisted into mid-2022, with ROE values of 16.51% on June 30, 2022, and 19.04% on September 30, 2022, reaching a peak of 19.38% at the end of 2022.

Throughout 2023, the ROE remained relatively high, albeit with signs of stabilization and slight declines, with readings of 18.60% in March, then decreasing to 16.22% by June and marginally rising again to 16.50% in September. However, continued downward movement was observed subsequently with ROE dropping to 13.37% at year's end and further declining in the first half of 2024, reaching 11.45% in March and 10.12% by June.

The decreasing trend persisted into the latter half of 2024 and into 2025, with ROE values declining to 6.92% in September 2024, 6.56% in December 2024, and further approaching close to 6.49% in March 2025. The latest data indicates a continued downward trend, with ROE at 4.79% in June 2025.

This overall pattern depicts an initial period of financial difficulty characterized by negative ROE, followed by a period of substantial recovery and growth through 2021 and 2022. In 2023, the ROE stabilized at elevated levels before beginning to decline notably in 2024 and into 2025, suggesting a possible shift in profitability dynamics, shareholder equity, or operational efficiency.
