Gen Digital Inc.'s gross profit margin has shown a gradual decline over the past five years, starting at 85.81% on March 31, 2021, and decreasing to 80.28% on March 31, 2025. This trend indicates a decrease in the percentage of revenue retained after accounting for direct production costs.

Further analysis of cost control measures and pricing strategies may be necessary to address this downward trend in gross profit margin.
