Silicon Laboratories Inc's return on equity (ROE) has exhibited significant fluctuations over the reported periods. The company's ROE was negative from June 2020 to June 2021, indicating that it was not generating positive returns for its shareholders during that time. However, starting from September 2021, the ROE increased substantially, reaching a peak of 131.97% in June 2022. This surge suggests that the company was effectively leveraging its equity to generate higher profits.

Subsequently, the ROE showed some fluctuations but remained positive until December 2023, after which it turned negative again. The negative ROE values from December 2023 to December 2024 indicate that the company's profitability relative to its equity had declined, which may raise concerns for investors.
