Operating Leverage
Operating Leverage is a measure of how much a company's operating income changes as its sales revenue changes. It is defined by the ratio between fixed cost and variable cost within the cost structure of a company.

Companies in capital-intensive sectors such as manufacturing, telecommunications, or infrastructure are likely to have high operating leverage. High operating leverage can result in a higher increase in profits as sales rise, but can also cause a higher decrease in profits as sales fall.
