It is worth noting that the company's ability to generate sales from its fixed assets has generally improved since 2019, indicating an upward trend in operational efficiency. This could be attributed to effective asset management and improved utilization of fixed assets to generate sales over the years. Overall, the company's fixed asset turnover indicates efficient use of fixed assets to generate revenue, though management could focus on sustaining or improving this efficiency in the coming years.
