The ROA was 4.93% as of December 31, 2020, which increased to 5.48% by December 31, 2021. However, the ROA decreased significantly to -1.65% by December 31, 2022, indicating a negative return on assets.

The trend continues with a further decline in ROA to -0.68% by December 31, 2023, and a more substantial decrease to -2.80% by December 31, 2024. These negative ROA figures suggest that the company's assets were not generating sufficient returns to cover its operating expenses and other costs.
