The analysis of Campbell’s Co return on assets (ROA) reveals notable fluctuations over the specified period. As of July 30 and July 31, 2023, the ROA remained consistent at 7.12%, indicating a stable ability to generate profits from the company's assets during that timeframe. However, by July 28 and July 31, 2024, the ROA substantially declined to 3.72%, reflecting a marked decrease in profitability relative to the company's asset base. This sharp reduction suggests possible challenges in operational efficiency, profit margins, or asset utilization during that year.
