Gross margin takeaway
Quarter ended Mar 31, 2026 · FY2026 Q1

- The strongest observable margin driver is the relationship between revenue growth and cost of revenue growth. Sequentially, cost of revenue increased at a higher rate than revenue, compressing gross margin.
- Compared to the immediately preceding quarter, gross margin was lower. Compared to the same quarter one year earlier, gross margin was higher.
