QuinStreet Inc's operating profit margin has fluctuated over the past five years. The company experienced a negative operating profit margin in the most recent fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, at -4.57%, reflecting a decline compared to the previous year.

The trend of declining operating profit margins over the past two years is concerning as it suggests inefficiencies or challenges in the company's operations.

Further analysis of QuinStreet's business strategy, cost structure, and revenue sources may be necessary to understand the reasons behind the declining operating profit margins and to identify potential areas for improvement.
