# Gross Margin Analysis – ELV
ELV retains 18.1 cents of revenue as gross profit for every dollar sold, after accounting for the cost of goods sold. This is substantially below the sector median of 41.3%, placing the company at the 15th percentile among industry peers—indicating weaker pricing power or higher production costs relative to competitors. The gross margin has remained flat at 18.1% over the last two quarters, showing no improvement or deterioration. This persistent underperformance suggests structural challenges in ELV's cost structure or business model, which limits profitability potential and leaves less room to cover operating expenses compared to sector peers.
