Deep Analysis
Gross margin measures the percentage of revenue a company keeps after paying the direct costs of producing its goods or services; ORCL's current 65.2% means that for every dollar of sales, about 65 cents remain to cover other expenses and profit.
This figure sits exactly at the sector median of 65.2%, placing ORCL in the 50th percentile among its technology peers—neither above nor below the typical competitor. The trend data is not available, with both the year-over-year change and quarter-over-quarter change listed as N/A, so no directional shift can be assessed. Because the gross margin is precisely at the sector midpoint and no trend information exists, the level alone offers neither a clear risk nor a distinct opportunity relative to peers. This metric neither supports nor contradicts the overall NEUTRAL verdict on ORCL, as it provides no signal to move the rating in either direction.
