it looks like post flop you are trying to play a laggy style, ie, your W$when saw flop is 40% which is pretty high, and your won $ at show down is atrocious, which is also a typical sign of super lags. This is because they make so much money in non-showdown pots that it gives them coverage to play their draws like a hammer, and obv when your draws get it in on the flop, they dont win 50% or so of the time. SO, that is okay
the problem i see is that your preflop play doesn't mirror this, you are playing far too passive around the button, your money won should normally steadily rise from UTG all the way up to the button, but yours is close to a flatline until you reach the cutoff, and then it drops markedly. Obviously your cold calling % should increase as you approach the button as you can call with hands, in position relative to the PFR, and try and find 2 ways to win the pot, but when you are playing hands that passively preflop, it makes it a lot harder to win pots post flop via brute force, because the pots are going to be multi-way a lot more often.
I'd try and align your VPIP/PFR a lot more in late position, drop that hammer, raise it up, cold call less, and then play aggro post flop.. its a hell of a lot easier to win without showdown when theres only 1 or 2 people seeing an inflated pot, OR, if you are going to play preflop passively, then I'd play postflop more passively, when you get draws, dont be so keen to just slam it in. Obviously dont be weak tight, but if you are going to play like you do preflop, its too hard to have a high winrate playing as you seemingly do postflop, and vice versa.
The disconnect between your pre and postflop stats is probably why you aren't winning as you should, so take a look at your postflop play in detail, specifically around the button, and do the same for preflop, try and identify spots where you could either play more aggro preflop, or less aggro post flop, and align the two styles so that you aren't trying to battle too much to connect the two.
Also, your stats shouldn't really start off with you losing money UTG and then climbing slowly. Obviously you can be running bad, the sample isn't that huge, but EP you aren't forced to pay a blind, so you can just fold 100% of your hands and have a win-rate of zero, and given the bad position, your range UTG should be so tight that the relative strength of your hand should easily negate any positional dis-advantage. Only winning 25% of the time suggests that you are probably running bad, but it also suggests that, given you only play 9% of your hands from that postion, you are likely not folding enough when its probably quite clear you are beat, so take a look at all the hands you lost at showdown from UTG, see if you are flopping too many top pair hands/overpairs that are getting turned over, and see if there aren't a couple of spots you can find that should indicate that you should fold before you get to showdown.
kinda rambling, but hope this helps some
