Cash Flow Statement Quarterly Data
The cash flow statement provides information about a company cash receipts and cash payments during an accounting period, showing how these cash flows link the ending cash balance to the beginning balance shown on the company balance sheet.
The cash flow statement consists of three parts: cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities, and cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities.
Operating cash flows exhibited a general upward trajectory from 2016 through 2021, characterized by a steady increase in net cash provided by operating activities. This growth peaked between late 2019 and early 2021, with quarterly inflows frequently exceeding 70 million USD. However, a significant contraction is observed in the final quarter of the analyzed period, with net cash from operations falling to 13.4 million USD in September 2022, despite a concurrent peak in net income of 106.1 million USD. This divergence suggests a heavy reliance on non-cash adjustments or significant working capital outflows during that period.
Net Income and Operating Reconciliation
Net income demonstrated high volatility, ranging from a loss of 26.5 million USD in March 2021 to a peak of 106.1 million USD in September 2022. The reconciliation adjustments show a stark shift in the most recent quarter, where a negative adjustment of 92.7 million USD substantially reduced the cash conversion of the reported net income.
Non-Cash Operating Add-backs
Stock-based compensation has remained a consistent source of non-cash add-backs, generally trending upward from 8.4 million USD in mid-2016 to 16.0 million USD by September 2022. Depreciation and amortization also showed a gradual increase, growing from approximately 1.4 million USD per quarter in 2016 to 6.7 million USD by late 2022.
Working Capital Dynamics
Changes in assets and liabilities have fluctuated significantly. Notable volatility is observed in the "Change in fair value of other investments," which reached a negative 77.1 million USD in September 2022. Inventory investments remained a consistent cash drain throughout the period, with quarterly outflows often ranging between 5 million and 12 million USD.
Investing activities were dominated by the management of marketable securities and strategic acquisitions. The company maintained a high volume of liquidity movement, characterized by large-scale purchases of marketable securities offset by periodic sales and maturities. In the final quarter of the data set, investing activities shifted to a net positive cash flow of 101.6 million USD, driven by 218.3 million USD in proceeds from the sale and maturity of marketable securities and 40.0 million USD from the sale of Shockwave Medical securities.
Capital Expenditures
Purchases of property and equipment peaked in March 2017 at 26.4 million USD and December 2017 at 26.5 million USD. Following this period, capital expenditures generally stabilized, typically falling between 6 million and 15 million USD per quarter, with a relative decrease to 5.6 million USD in September 2022.
Strategic Acquisitions
Significant cash outflows for acquisitions were recorded for Breethe in June 2020 (51.9 million USD) and preCARDIA in June 2021 (82.8 million USD), reflecting a period of targeted inorganic growth.
Financing activities transitioned from modest inflows and outflows in the early years to aggressive capital return strategies in the later stages. A marked increase in the repurchase of common stock is evident, particularly in the final quarter analyzed, where 112.1 million USD was utilized for share buybacks. This represents the largest single financing outflow in the provided data set.
Equity-Based Financing
Proceeds from the exercise of stock options and employee stock purchase plans provided a consistent but small source of cash, typically ranging from 1 million to 6 million USD per quarter.
Share Repurchase Trend
Share repurchases became a primary use of cash starting in late 2019, with outflows ranging from 11.3 million to 34.9 million USD per quarter before the substantial acceleration to 112.1 million USD in September 2022.
