The Return on Assets (ROA) for Paramount Skydance Corporation Class B Common Stock exhibited notable fluctuations over the analyzed period. From September 30, 2020, through December 31, 2021, the ROA generally trended upward, starting at 5.01% and reaching a peak of approximately 7.75%. This pattern indicates an initial period of improved efficiency in generating profits from assets, reflecting favorable operational performance during this timeframe.

However, from the beginning of 2022 onward, a sustained decline in ROA is evident. By March 31, 2022, the ratio decreased slightly to 7.00%, and subsequent quarters showed a continued downward trajectory, culminating in a negative ROA of -0.78% by March 31, 2023. This negative turning point signifies a shift from asset efficiency to asset utilization losses, suggesting increased challenges in profit generation relative to the company's asset base.

The downward trend persisted into 2024, with ROA values reaching as low as -13.41% on December 31, 2024. This persistent negative trajectory indicates a period of significant operational or financial difficulties, with the company unable to generate positive returns from its assets. The negative ROA continued into 2025, with the ratio slightly improving to -0.03% by June 30, 2025, but remaining near break-even levels.

Overall, the data reflects a transition from a period of moderate profitability and operational efficiency in 2020 and 2021 to a phase marked by substantial losses and diminished asset effectiveness from 2022 onward. The persistent negative ROA in recent periods underscores ongoing challenges faced by the company in achieving positive returns on its asset base.
