Automatic checks on the figures above. A flag is a pattern to investigate, not a finding of wrongdoing, and each one lists ordinary explanations for it.
Operating margin fell from 38.7% in Dec 2019 to 34.2% in Dec 2020 and 33.8% in Dec 2021.
| Operating income | Dec 2021 | $10.1B |

| Operating income | Dec 2020 | $8.1B |
| Revenue | Dec 2020 | $23.6B |

How it's calculated: Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue, for each year.
Rule: Operating margin lower in each of the last two years, down 3 percentage points or more in total.
Why it can matter: A margin that keeps shrinking can mean costs are rising faster than prices, or that the company is losing pricing power.
Common innocent explanations: Deliberate investment in growth, a shift in the mix of products, or one-off charges that depress a single year.
