The absence of data for 2023 and 2024 makes it challenging to provide a complete assessment of the trend. If there has been a strategic shift in operations or capital allocation during these years, further information would be needed to understand the impact on fixed asset turnover.

Overall, the decreasing trend in fixed asset turnover suggests that Eaton Corporation PLC may be experiencing challenges in efficiently utilizing its fixed assets to generate revenue. This trend warrants closer examination to identify potential inefficiencies in asset management and operational performance.
