Avis Budget Group Inc's profitability ratios have shown significant fluctuations over the past few years.

1. Operating return on assets (Operating ROA) has improved consistently from March 31, 2020, when it was 1.80%, to a peak of 41.19% on June 30, 2023. However, it decreased to 7.87% on June 30, 2024, indicating some volatility in the company's operational efficiency.

2. Return on assets (ROA) also fluctuated, with a significant increase from 1.00% on March 31, 2020, to 24.24% on June 30, 2023. The ratio declined to 2.32% on June 30, 2024. This ratio reveals the company's ability to generate profits from its assets.

3. Return on total capital was negative at the beginning of the analyzed period, suggesting that the company was not effectively utilizing its total capital. However, the data from June 30, 2021, shows a sharp increase to 1,198.91%, which could be an anomaly or a result of a specific event impacting capital structure reporting rather than a sustainable improvement.

4. Return on equity (ROE) had a significant improvement from 80.48% on March 31, 2020, to 198.91% on June 30, 2021. Subsequently, the data shows little to no information, suggesting that the company may not have reported data for these quarters or that the figures were not calculable due to specific circumstances.

Overall, the improvement in operating ROA and ROA indicates the company's better operational performance in recent quarters. However, the fluctuations in other ratios, especially return on total capital and return on equity, require further investigation to understand the company's financial health comprehensively.
