Net Income Trend
Net income exhibits notable volatility throughout the periods, with several peaks and troughs. It reached highs near or above 1,000 million USD in late 2011, late 2013, and late 2014, followed by sharp declines in subsequent quarters. The general pattern indicates cyclical performance with intermittent strong quarters interspersed with weaker ones.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization steadily increased over time from around 339 million USD in early 2011 to above 500 million USD by mid-2016, indicating ongoing investment in fixed assets and intangible asset amortization.
Non-cash Interest Expense and Special Charges
Non-cash interest expense on debt remained relatively low with occasional fluctuations; a significant negative value appeared around late 2013. Non-cash restructuring and special charges showed minor, irregular values, with a spike in late 2015 reflecting increased restructuring activity.
Stock-based Compensation Expense
Stock-based compensation consistently rose over the years, starting near 200 million USD in early 2011 and reaching over 300 million USD by mid-2016, indicating increasing employee compensation aligned with stock incentives.
Provision for Doubtful Accounts and Deferred Income Taxes
Provision for doubtful accounts fluctuated considerably, with positive and negative values indicating variable recoveries and provisions. Deferred income taxes showed volatility, with both positive and negative extremes, pointing to recurring tax asset and liability adjustments.
Excess Tax Benefits
Excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation were mostly negative during early years, turning occasionally positive later, suggesting fluctuating tax impacts related to stock compensation programs.
Impairment and Gains on Investments
Gains on strategic investments were recorded intermittently with notable negative impacts in 2012-2014. Impairments of joint ventures appeared sporadically in 2014 and 2016, indicating write-downs impacting earnings in those periods.
Working Capital Components
Accounts and notes receivable showed pronounced volatility, with large positive and negative fluctuations indicating changes in collections or credit terms. Inventories also varied widely, reflecting potential changes in demand or supply chain adjustments. Accounts payable and accrued expenses exhibited swings reflecting possible payment timing and operational changes. Deferred revenue fluctuated significantly, suggesting variability in revenues recognized versus cash received.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Operating cash flow demonstrated a positive overall trend with significant peaks, particularly in late 2011, late 2013, and late 2014, paralleling net income highs, confirming strong cash generation during profitable quarters.
Investing Activities
Investing cash flow was generally negative, driven by consistent capital expenditures on property, plant, and equipment, and capitalized software development costs. Purchases of available-for-sale securities were substantial and intermittent while sales and maturities partially offset them. Business acquisitions displayed notably large outflows, especially in 2012 and 2014, indicating aggressive investment in growth through acquisition during these years.
Financing Activities
Financing cash flows were variable, with notable repurchases of common stock by both EMC and VMware, reflecting a focus on returning capital to shareholders or adjusting equity structures. Periodic issuance of common stock occurred, offsetting some repurchases. Debt issuance and repayments were inconsistent, with a few large repayments and issuances suggesting active management of the debt portfolio. Dividends were consistently paid from the later periods where data was available.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Change
Cash levels showed fluctuations aligning with operating, investing, and financing cash flows, with periods of both significant increases and decreases, indicating active cash management responsive to the company's operational needs and strategic investment plans.
Summary
The financial data reveals a company with cyclical profitability and strong cash flow generation in specific quarters, supported by consistent reinvestments in assets and technology. There is evidence of strategic activity through acquisitions and capital market transactions. Working capital components are volatile, reflecting business dynamics or management of receivables and payables. Stock-based compensation costs have increased steadily, impacting expenses and tax benefits. Overall, the financial patterns suggest a company balancing growth investments with returns to shareholders, while managing operational and financial volatility.
