Frontier Communications Parent Inc's operating profit margin has exhibited fluctuations over the past few quarters. The operating profit margin was on an upward trend from the start of 2020 to mid-2021, reaching double-digit percentages, indicating efficient cost management and revenue generation during that period. However, there was a significant decline in the operating profit margin in the third and fourth quarters of 2021, leading to negative margins in 2022.
