The fixed asset turnover ratio for Vericel Corp Ord has shown a declining trend over the past few quarters. In March 2020, the ratio stood at 3.84, indicating that the company generated $3.84 in sales for every dollar invested in fixed assets. However, by December 2021, the ratio had decreased to 2.65, and further dropped to 2.67 by March 2022.

Despite a slight uptick in the fixed asset turnover ratio in the following quarters, ranging between 2.60 and 2.86, the ratio remained below the levels seen in early 2020. The lack of data for the latter half of 2023 and all of 2024 makes it challenging to assess any potential recovery or deterioration in the company's efficiency in utilizing its fixed assets to generate sales.

Overall, the fluctuating trend in the fixed asset turnover ratio during the period indicates that Vericel Corp Ord may be facing challenges in optimizing the productivity of its fixed assets to drive revenue generation. It would be important for stakeholders to monitor future quarters to understand whether this trend continues or if there are any strategic initiatives implemented to improve asset turnover efficiency.
