A total asset turnover below 1 indicates that the company generates less in revenue relative to its total assets, suggesting that it may not be efficiently utilizing its assets to generate sales. Despite some variability, the ratio has generally been in the range of 0.62 to 0.76, implying that KLA-Tencor has been able to effectively generate revenue from its assets during most of the period analyzed.

However, it is essential to investigate the underlying reasons for the fluctuations in the total asset turnover ratio to assess whether they are driven by changes in sales, asset efficiency, or a combination of factors within the company. A sustained improvement in the total asset turnover ratio may indicate enhanced asset utilization efficiency, leading to increased sales generation from the company's assets.
