The operating profit margin of TechTarget, Inc. depicts a fluctuating trend over the period from June 2020 through June 2025. Initially, the margin commenced at approximately 16.73% as of June 30, 2020, indicating a healthy profitability level relative to revenue in that period. Throughout the subsequent quarters, there was a gradual decline, with the margin decreasing to 12.13% by September 2021, reflecting a waning profitability in operating activities.

Between September 2021 and December 2022, a notable recovery occurred, with margins rising from approximately 12.13% to a peak of 22.04%, suggesting an improvement in operational efficiency and profitability. This upward trend persisted into the early months of 2023, reaching around 19.27% in March 2023.

However, starting in the second quarter of 2023, there was a marked decline in the operating profit margin, decreasing to roughly 13.81%, and subsequently dropping sharply in the following quarters. By September 2023, the margin had fallen to 7.66%, and it continued to decline into negative territory, reaching approximately -0.99% by the end of 2023. The negative margins persisted into 2024 and into 2025, with the most recent data indicating a margin of around -12.20% for the quarter ending March 2025, and a significant further deterioration to -160.46% by June 2025.

This pattern indicates that while the company experienced periods of operating profitability, recent quarters have been characterized by substantial declines, culminating in negative operating margins, which suggest operating losses and deteriorating operational performance over the analyzed timeframe.
