Long-term

Mar 31, 2024 Mar 31, 2023 Mar 31, 2022 Mar 31, 2021 Mar 31, 2020
Fixed asset turnover 8.33 7.47 3.81 3.95 3.84
Total asset turnover 1.18 1.20 0.53 0.47 0.77

Haemonetics Corporation's long-term activity ratios indicate the company's efficiency in managing its fixed assets and total assets to generate revenue over the past five years. The fixed asset turnover has shown a positive trend, increasing from 3.84 in 2020 to 8.33 in 2024, indicating that the company has become more effective in utilizing its fixed assets to generate sales. This improvement suggests that Haemonetics has been able to increase its revenue relative to its investment in fixed assets.

In contrast, the total asset turnover has fluctuated over the same period, with a notable improvement in 2022 and 2023 followed by a slight decline in 2024. Although the ratio has generally increased from 0.47 in 2021 to 1.18 in 2024, it is still relatively low compared to the fixed asset turnover ratio. This indicates that the company may have excessive investment in total assets compared to the level of sales generated.

Overall, the increase in fixed asset turnover suggests that Haemonetics has been successful in improving the utilization of its fixed assets, potentially through increased production efficiency or better asset management practices. However, the fluctuation in total asset turnover indicates potential inefficiencies in the utilization of total assets, which could be further explored to optimize the company's asset management strategies.
