The analysis of CleanSpark Inc's return on assets (ROA) over the specified period reveals a trajectory marked by significant volatility and gradual improvement. Between June 30, 2020, and March 31, 2023, the company's ROA remained consistently negative, with values ranging from -137.58% to -22.41%, indicating substantial losses relative to its total assets during that timeframe. The early quarters of this period show a pattern of persistent negative ROA, although there was a noticeable trend toward narrowing losses commencing in late 2020 and into 2021.

A notable turning point appears in the quarter ending March 31, 2024, when ROA transitioned to a positive figure of 4.13%. This marks a significant improvement suggesting that the company managed to generate more efficient utilization of its assets to produce earnings during this period. Subsequently, the ROA experienced fluctuations, with a decline to -10.74% in June 2024 and a slight improvement to -7.43% by September 2024, ultimately reaching an overall positive ROA of 2.70% at the end of December 2024. The latest data point from March 31, 2025, shows a return to negative territory at -7.17%, indicating potential variability and ongoing asset efficiency challenges.

Throughout the timeline, the shifts from deep negative ROA to positive figures highlight a period of financial recovery and operational improvement. However, the overall pattern underscores the company's historical struggles with profitability, with recent positive figures suggesting a potential turning point yet still subject to volatility. This pattern warrants continued monitoring to assess whether the upward trend can be sustained and translated into consistent operating profitability.
