•

higher Net sales due to higher product shipments during Q2 2024 and higher backlog as of March 31, 2024; and

higher Net investment income on investments in U.S. Treasury money market funds due to the repositioning of the portfolio into U.S. Treasury money market funds that occurred during 2023.

Gross Margin
