What the margin says

Filing-constrained interpretation of margin direction, comparisons, and what to monitor next.

The primary observable factor was the relative increase in cost of revenue, which grew faster than revenue and narrowed the gross margin.

Compared to the prior quarter, revenue and gross profit were higher, but gross margin was lower. Compared to the same quarter last year, revenue and gross profit were higher, while gross margin was lower.

Monitor whether cost of revenue continues to increase at a rate that outpaces revenue growth, as this could further pressure gross margin.
