What the margin says

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

The gross margin increased sequentially, driven by a proportionally larger gain in gross profit relative to the increase in revenue. This improvement occurred even as cost of revenue also rose.

Compared to the prior quarter, gross margin was higher; compared to the same quarter last year, gross margin was lower. Revenue, gross profit, and cost of revenue were all higher than both prior periods.

Monitor whether the recent sequential improvement in gross margin can be sustained if revenue growth slows or cost of revenue increases at a faster pace.
