Organon & Co's operating return on assets (operating ROA) has declined over the years from 27.30% as of December 31, 2020, to 15.16% as of December 31, 2021, and further to 13.49% as of December 31, 2022.

This downward trend in operating ROA indicates a decrease in the company's ability to generate profits from its assets. It suggests that Organon & Co's operational efficiency and profitability have declined over the years, potentially due to factors such as increasing operating expenses, declining revenue, or inefficient asset utilization.

To improve its operating ROA, Organon & Co may need to focus on enhancing operational efficiency, controlling costs, optimizing asset utilization, and possibly reviewing its business strategies to drive profitability and maximize returns on assets in the future.
