Gross margin takeaway

Quarter ended Mar 29, 2024 · FY2024 Q1

Gross margin weakened as revenue decreased while cost of revenue remained relatively unchanged year-over-year. Sequentially, both revenue and cost of revenue declined, but the gross profit decline was more pronounced, leading to a lower gross margin.

  • The relationship among revenue, gross profit, and cost of revenue shows that gross margin was lower primarily because revenue declined while cost of revenue stayed nearly flat compared to the same quarter last year. Sequentially, cost of revenue decreased at a similar absolute amount to revenue, but the starting margin base caused gross profit to fall more sharply.
  • Compared to the immediately preceding quarter, revenue and gross profit were both lower, and gross margin weakened. Versus the same quarter one year earlier, revenue and gross profit were also lower, with gross margin declining as cost of revenue remained unchanged.

What the margin says

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

The relationship among revenue, gross profit, and cost of revenue shows that gross margin was lower primarily because revenue declined while cost of revenue stayed nearly flat compared to the same quarter last year. Sequentially, cost of revenue decreased at a similar absolute amount to revenue, but the starting margin base caused gross profit to fall more sharply.

Compared to the immediately preceding quarter, revenue and gross profit were both lower, and gross margin weakened. Versus the same quarter one year earlier, revenue and gross profit were also lower, with gross margin declining as cost of revenue remained unchanged.

Monitor capital expenditure levels, particularly those directed toward manufacturing equipment, as noted in the liquidity discussion, since they may influence future cost structure.
