Godaddy Inc's gross profit margin has fluctuated over the quarters, ranging from a high of 65.23% in March 2020 to a low of 58.71% in September 2024. The trend shows a gradual decline from 65.23% in March 2020 to 61.59% in December 2024, indicating a potential increase in production or procurement costs relative to sales.

2. Operating Profit Margin:
- The operating profit margin reveals the proportion of revenue that translates into operating profit after deducting operating expenses. Godaddy Inc's operating profit margin has shown variability, with a substantial increase from 8.08% in March 2020 to 20.16% in December 2024. The trend indicates an improvement in operational efficiency and cost management over the quarters.
