- The primary observable driver is the relationship between cost of revenue and revenue; gross profit was flat year-over-year despite higher revenue, indicating that cost increases absorbed the additional revenue.
- Compared to the immediately preceding full fiscal year, the current quarter's gross margin is lower. Versus the same quarter one year earlier, gross margin also declined as revenue rose but gross profit did not increase.
