LGI Homes Inc's fixed asset turnover ratio has been declining steadily over the past eight quarters, from 148.83 in Q1 2022 to 51.81 in Q4 2023. This indicates that the company is generating less revenue relative to its fixed assets.
On the other hand, the total asset turnover ratio has also been decreasing over the same period, from 1.11 in Q1 2022 to 0.69 in Q4 2023. This suggests that LGI Homes Inc is becoming less efficient in generating sales from its total assets.
Overall, the decreasing trend in both the fixed asset turnover and total asset turnover ratios may indicate potential inefficiencies in the company's asset utilization and could be a cause for concern for stakeholders.
