The working capital turnover ratio of Varex Imaging Corp has shown some fluctuations over the past few financial periods, ranging from a low of 1.72 to a high of 3.19. This ratio indicates the company's efficiency in generating revenue relative to its working capital. A higher ratio suggests that the company is effectively utilizing its working capital to generate sales.

From the trend observed, the working capital turnover ratio has generally been on a downward trajectory since the end of 2019, where it peaked at 3.19. The ratio has since decreased steadily, reaching a low of 1.72 in March 2024 before recovering slightly to 1.76 in September 2024. This indicates a potential decline in the company's efficiency in utilizing its working capital to drive revenue.

It is worth noting that a single ratio alone cannot provide a complete picture of a company's financial performance, and it is essential to consider other financial ratios and metrics alongside the working capital turnover to gain a comprehensive understanding of Varex Imaging Corp's financial health and operational efficiency.
