Dupont De Nemours Inc's operating return on assets (operating ROA) experienced fluctuations over the examined period. The trend shows a decline from 4.04% in March 2020 to -0.11% in December 2024. However, it's important to note that there were periods of improvement within this timeframe, such as an increase from 3.56% in March 2021 to 5.50% in December 2022.

Generally, operating ROA reflects the company's ability to generate profits from its assets utilized in operations. The varying percentages indicate the efficiency of Dupont De Nemours Inc in utilizing its assets to generate operating income. The negative percentage in December 2024 suggests that the company's operating income was insufficient to cover the asset base during that period.
