CommVault Systems Inc has consistently maintained a high gross profit margin ranging from 81.93% to 85.24% over the past eight quarters. However, the company's operating profit margin has been more volatile, fluctuating between -5.54% and 8.98%. In the most recent quarter, the operating profit margin improved significantly to 8.98%, indicating better operational efficiency.

Similarly, the pretax margin has shown variability, varying between -5.23% and 9.96% over the past two years. The most recent quarter saw a notable increase in the pretax margin to 9.96%, reflecting improvements in pre-tax profitability.

On the other hand, the net profit margin has been inconsistent, ranging from -4.47% to 20.13% over the analyzed period. The company experienced a significant rebound in net profit margin in the latest quarter, reaching 20.13%. This suggests that the company successfully controlled expenses or may have benefited from non-operating income in that period.

Overall, CommVault Systems Inc's profitability ratios have shown fluctuations, but the recent quarters have demonstrated improvements in operational efficiency and profitability, especially on the operating and net profit margin fronts. However, investors should closely monitor the company's ability to sustain and further enhance its profitability in the future.
