These companies are in the Semiconductor cohort but don't have a Markup computed for FY 2023. Either the underlying inputs aren't tagged in their XBRL filings, the DEF 14A pay-ratio narrative didn't parse cleanly, or this fiscal year hasn't been ingested for them yet.

Revenue / COGS
Sector context

Applied to fabless and integrated semiconductor companies. COGS captures wafer, foundry, packaging, and test costs; Operational Markup is the more cyclically-stable indicator across product cycles.

Captures gross extraction per dollar of input. A markup ratio of 5.0 means the company collects $5 in revenue for every $1 of cost-of-goods.
