The return on assets (ROA) for KLA-Tencor Corporation has demonstrated notable fluctuations over the period from June 30, 2021, to June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2021, the ROA stood at 20.23%, indicating a relatively strong efficiency in generating profits from the company's assets. This figure increased substantially by June 30, 2022, reaching 26.37%, which suggests an improvement in operational efficiency or profitability relative to asset base during that period.

However, the positive trend did not sustain into 2023, as the ROA declined to 24.07% by June 30, 2023, reflecting a slight decrease in asset utilization effectiveness or profit margins. The decline accelerated more markedly into 2024, with the ROA dropping to 17.90%, indicating a potentially challenging period for asset productivity or profitability margins.

By June 30, 2025, the ROA rebounded sharply to 25.28%, surpassing previous levels and indicating a significant recovery or improvement in the company's ability to generate earnings from its assets. This fluctuation suggests that the company's asset efficiency has experienced periods of both strength and weakness, likely influenced by variations in operational performance, market conditions, or investment strategies over the analyzed period.
