January 31, 2025 calculation

ROA = Net income (ttm) ÷ Total assets
= $12,000K ÷ $6,748,000K
= 0.18%

The return on assets (ROA) for Foot Locker Inc has shown a declining trend over the reported periods, starting at 6.42% as of January 31, 2022, and decreasing to 0.18% by January 31, 2025. This indicates that the company's ability to generate earnings from its assets has been diminishing over time. The drop in ROA could be attributed to various factors such as decreasing profitability, inefficient asset utilization, or increasing asset base without a proportional increase in earnings. The negative ROA values in some periods suggest that the company may have incurred losses relative to its asset base during those times. Foot Locker Inc may need to evaluate its operational efficiency and asset management strategies to improve its ROA and overall profitability in the future.
