What operating margin means
Operating margin measures the percentage of revenue left after operating costs and expenses. It shows how much operating profit a company generates from each dollar of revenue.

How operating margin is calculated
TickerStat calculates operating margin as SEC-reported operating income divided by SEC-reported revenue for the same fiscal period. Changes are shown in percentage points. Fiscal periods can differ from calendar years, so exact period-end dates are included.
