Deep Analysis

Autodesk's gross margin of 91.0% means that for every dollar of revenue, the company keeps 91 cents after subtracting the direct costs of producing its software, leaving only 9 cents in cost of goods sold.

This figure places Autodesk in the 98th percentile among its technology sector peers, far above the sector median of 62.2%. The year-over-year change and quarter-over-quarter change are both not available, so there is no trend data to assess from those comparisons. The combination of an extremely high gross margin with no recent trend data suggests limited immediate risk from cost pressures, but the lack of directional information means investors cannot gauge whether this level is improving or eroding. This metric strongly supports the overall BULLISH verdict, as a gross margin at the top of the sector peer group indicates strong pricing power and efficient operations.
