Gross margin takeaway

Quarter ended Mar 31, 2026 · FY2025 Q1

Revenue declined sequentially while gross profit fell at a slightly faster rate, causing gross margin to weaken. Compared with the same quarter a year earlier, revenue and gross profit both grew, resulting in an improved gross margin.

  • Cost of revenue remained stable sequentially despite a drop in revenue, which pressured gross profit and margin. Over the prior year, cost of revenue increased less than revenue, supporting margin expansion.
  • Gross margin is lower than the preceding quarter but higher than the same quarter one year earlier. Revenue and gross profit both decreased from the prior quarter, while they increased compared with the year-ago period.
