How TTM margins are measured
Margins divide a profitability line by trailing-twelve-month revenue, expressed as a percentage. Each column on this page measures a different layer of the income statement — gross strips only direct production costs; operating subtracts overhead, R&D and D&A; EBITDA adds D&A back to operating; net subtracts interest and taxes; FCF replaces accrual profit with operating cash flow minus capex. Together they describe where a business actually makes its money.
Margins make capital-light franchises directly comparable to capital-heavy ones — a software filer with a 35% operating margin runs a different model than a global retailer at 6%. To compare absolute scale instead of percentages see the revenue ranking and net income ranking. Non-USD filers are ranked on USD-translated TTM lines so peers stay comparable.
