Questions, answered.
- What does gross margin mean?
- How much of every sales dollar is left after the direct cost of what was sold.
- How do you interpret gross margin?
- Higher and stable gross margins indicate pricing power and a durable cost structure. A declining trend signals input-cost pressure, pricing competition, or a shift toward lower-margin products.
- How does gross margin compare across companies?
- Highly comparable within an industry, less so across industries — software runs 70%+ while distributors run in single digits. Track the trend more than the absolute level across sectors.
