Varying Pricing Power over the past 10 years
HTM has maintained substantial gross margins, suggesting that they have been able to set prices without consideration of the cost of goods sold.

Look at reasons for this inconsistency to determine the likelihood of future sustainability.

Low Capital Intensity over the past 10 years

This indicates that HTM may require minimal investment to stay competitive.
This leaves them with extra money to spend on growing their business and potentially buying back stock.
