Gross Profit and Cost of Sales
The gross profit as a percentage of sales exhibited an overall stable pattern, fluctuating mostly between approximately 53.8% and 62.0% over the periods analyzed. It reached a relative peak early in 2021 around 62.0% and subsequently maintained an average near 59%-60%. Conversely, the cost of sales showed a generally inverse trajectory ranging from about -46.15% to -37.98%, with some increase in cost noted in mid-2023 where it rose closer to -43.8%. This indicates a general control of production or acquisition costs contributing positively to gross profit margins during most of the interval.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (SG&A)
SG&A expenses as a share of sales trended downward from nearly -33.6% at the start of the period to a low near -26.2% by the end of 2022, suggesting improved efficiencies or cost management. However, starting in early 2023, this ratio increased again, at times reaching over -39.7% by mid-2025, indicating a resurgence of increased spending or possibly inflationary pressures impacting these operating costs.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consistently accounted for approximately 5.4% to 6.8% of sales throughout the timeframe, reflecting a relatively stable commitment to innovation and product development. Minor fluctuations were observed but no significant trend of expansion or contraction was evident.
Operating Profit
The operating profit percentage showed strong variation, ranging from a lower bound near 12.8% to a high exceeding 29% around early 2021. Following the peak in 2021, the operating margin generally declined or stabilized around the lower twenties percentage-wise, with some dips in 2024 and mid-2025, indicating episodic pressure on operating income likely influenced by SG&A and other cost variances.
Nonoperating Income and Expenses
Nonoperating items, including other income, interest, and losses on extinguishments, contributed variably to the overall profitability. Interest expense remained relatively low and stable, generally around -0.5% to -1.3% of sales, while interest income showed a slight upward trend early on before leveling and becoming more variable. Notably, other income and expenses exhibited volatility, sometimes contributing positively but more often representing a small drag, especially visible in the latter periods with negative nonoperating income effects.
Earnings Before Income Taxes and Net Earnings
Earnings before income taxes as a percentage of sales mirrored the operating profit trends, peaking near 30.4% in early 2021, then fluctuating but generally trending downward toward a range between approximately 11.0% and 27.3%. Net earnings displayed similar patterns, with notable highs exceeding 26% in late 2022 and early 2023, accompanied by intermittent declines down to about 9.3% in mid-2025. This variability suggests sensitivity to operating and nonoperating factors, including tax rate shifts and extraordinary items.
Income Taxes
Income taxes as a percent of sales varied considerably, ranging mostly between approximately -1.7% to -5.6%, although one positive anomaly occurred at the end of 2022 (0.47%). The fluctuations in tax expense relative to earnings before tax suggest changing effective tax rates or possible tax benefits or adjustments throughout different quarters.
Net Earnings Attributable to Common Stockholders
This metric closely tracked the overall net earnings trends, indicating that common stockholders captured the majority of profitability. The values ranged from about 9.3% to 24.2% of sales, peaking in the first half of 2021 and late 2022, with a subsequent cautious decline and variability through 2024 and 2025, reflecting mixed performance across the fiscal period.
