Sensata Technologies Holding NV has shown a declining trend in profitability ratios over the last few years. The gross profit margin has decreased from around 33% in March 2022 to approximately 27% in December 2024, indicating a decrease in the company's ability to generate profits after accounting for the cost of goods sold.

Similarly, the operating profit margin declined from 16% in June 2021 to around 11% in December 2024, signifying a reduction in the efficiency of the company's operations in generating profits before interest and taxes.

The pretax margin also exhibited a significant decline, dropping from 12% in June 2023 to negative figures in the last quarter of 2024. This suggests that the company's profitability before accounting for taxes has deteriorated over the period, possibly due to various operational challenges or financial setbacks.

Lastly, the net profit margin has shown a concerning decrease, plummeting from around 9% in March 2023 to negative values in the last two quarters of 2024. This indicates that Sensata Technologies Holding NV has faced challenges in generating profits after all expenses, including taxes and interest, which may raise concerns about the company's financial health and long-term sustainability.
