Despite the memory shortage and cost inflation, management has 'line of sight' to fully mitigate the 2-point margin headwind for the year, with the cost trajectory in line with prior guidance and less severe than spot market rates. — This suggests memory suppliers are prioritizing long-term direct customers over spot-market buyers, potentially shielding Zebra and similar partners from the worst of the price spike.
Доказательства
“we purchase the vast majority of our memory direct, which has been favorable to the spot market rates that a lot of folks have visibility to”

Freight costs, which have risen 20-30% across various lanes, are actually a manageable cost headwind as they represent less than 2% of revenue and have been incorporated into the 2026 guidance. — This indicates freight price increases are being passed through or absorbed without a significant impact on margins, showing pricing power in the supply chain despite logistics cost inflation.
Доказательства
“transportation or freight costs are less than 2% of revenue. So you know, right now it's in a range that we can manage and use other levers to offset.”

Despite the memory shortage and cost inflation, management has 'line of sight' to fully mitigate the 2-point margin headwind for the year, with the cost trajectory in line with prior guidance and less severe than spot market rates.
Zebra's Q1 margin outperformance was driven by strength in asset visibility (printing, scanning, machine vision) and manufacturing, areas that did NOT have a price increase, not by the price hike that was expected to impact memory costs.
Доказательства
“the upside to our guidance to the high end was driven by asset visibility and the strength in manufacturing, which did not have the price increase”
Zebra saw no pull-forward in demand due to their announced price increases, indicating that customers in this market are not hoarding units ahead of price hikes, which is atypical for a hardware company.
Доказательства
“We saw no real pull forward of demand across our customers related to memory or price increases”
Freight costs, which have risen 20-30% across various lanes, are actually a manageable cost headwind as they represent less than 2% of revenue and have been incorporated into the 2026 guidance.
Memory costs are expected to increase sequentially in Q2, a step-up that will temporarily weigh on margins before being offset by price realization later in the year.
Доказательства
“you see the step up in, you know, the cost profile from Q1 to Q2, just as we, you know, work through our inventory position coming into the year”
