The common-size income statement reveals several noteworthy trends over the observed period. A significant shift in the revenue mix between products and services is apparent, alongside fluctuations in profitability and expense management. Overall, the company demonstrates a degree of cyclicality, with performance varying across quarters.

Revenue Mix
The proportion of net sales derived from products generally decreased from 86.15% in December 2019 to a range between 70.84% and 82.27% through December 2022, before increasing to 79.12% in September 2025. Conversely, the contribution of services to net sales increased from 13.85% in December 2019, peaking at 28.23% in June 2024, before settling at 20.88% in September 2025. This indicates a strategic shift towards a greater reliance on service revenue.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales remained relatively stable, fluctuating between approximately 50% and 62% throughout the period. A slight downward trend is observed in the later quarters, suggesting potential improvements in cost management or shifts in the product mix towards higher-margin items. The lowest percentage was observed in September 2025 at 51.84%.
Gross Margin
Gross margin exhibited an upward trend, increasing from 38.35% in December 2019 to a peak of 47.18% in June 2025. This improvement aligns with the observed trends in cost of sales and the increasing contribution of services, which typically have higher gross margins. A slight dip is observed in the final period, falling to 46.49% in December 2025.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses, encompassing research and development and selling, general, and administrative expenses, demonstrated considerable volatility. A notable increase occurred in the first half of 2020, followed by a period of relative stability. Expenses increased again in 2023 and 2024, before decreasing in September 2025. The highest percentage of net sales allocated to operating expenses was 16.70% in June 2024.
Operating Income
Operating income as a percentage of net sales mirrored the trends in gross margin and operating expenses. It generally increased from 27.85% in December 2019, peaking at 35.37% in September 2025, indicating improved operational efficiency. Fluctuations in operating expenses impacted operating income, with dips corresponding to periods of higher expense ratios.
Net Income
Net income as a percentage of net sales followed a similar pattern to operating income, ranging from 15.52% to 29.23%. The provision for income taxes exhibited variability, significantly impacting net income in certain periods, particularly in June 2024 where it reached 15.67% of net sales. Overall, net income demonstrated a positive correlation with gross margin and operating income.

In conclusion, the company experienced a dynamic period characterized by a strategic shift towards services, improvements in gross margin, and fluctuations in operating expenses. These factors collectively influenced operating and net income, demonstrating a degree of resilience and adaptability over the analyzed timeframe.
