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.

- Net earnings
- Net earnings exhibit notable volatility over the observed periods, with some quarters showing significant spikes, notably during mid-2020 and mid-2022. Earnings increased markedly from early 2019 through mid-2021, followed by fluctuations reflecting periods of both gains and decreases, indicating cyclical influences and possible external economic factors impacting profitability.
- Depreciation and amortization
- Depreciation and amortization expenses generally trend upward gradually across the quarters, reflecting ongoing capital investment and asset aging. Amortization of intangible assets appears from late 2023 onwards with rising values, suggesting recent acquisitions or increased capitalization of intangible assets.
- Stock-based compensation expense
- Stock-based compensation exhibits irregular fluctuations with some peaks notably around early 2021 and late 2022, indicating periods of heightened employee incentives or changes in stock valuation practices.
- Changes in receivables, inventories, and other current assets
- Receivables and other current assets changes show alternating positive and negative swings, suggesting variability in credit policies or sales terms. Merchandise inventories display significant volatility, with large negative changes indicating inventory reductions alternating with positive values pointing to restocking phases, reflecting adaptive inventory management strategies in response to market demand and supply chain conditions.
- Changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses
- There is pronounced variability in payables and accrued expenses, with large increases in some quarters and substantial decreases in others. These fluctuations likely represent shifting payment cycles, supplier negotiations, or operational cash management efforts.
- Changes in deferred revenue and income taxes payable
- Deferred revenue changes are inconsistent with periods of both positive and negative adjustments, while income taxes payable also show considerable variation, likely reflecting timing differences in tax payments versus accruals and operational revenue recognition.
- Operating cash flow
- Net cash provided by operating activities generally maintain a strong positive trend with some fluctuations, reaching peak values during mid-2020 and mid-2023. This indicates effective cash generation from core operations, despite variances caused by seasonal or economic factors.
- Capital expenditures and investing activities
- Capital expenditures remain consistently negative across periods, reflecting ongoing investment in property, plant, and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities usually indicates cash outflows, though there are episodes of substantial outflows related to business acquisitions, notably in late 2020 and mid-2024, highlighting strategic expansion through acquisitions.
- Financing activities
- Cash flows from financing activities demonstrate high variability, with periods of both significant inflows and outflows. Repurchases of common stock show substantial cash outflows primarily concentrated in early to mid-2021, indicating active shareholder return initiatives. Proceeds from long-term debt display intermittent sizable inflows, whereas repayments of long-term debt are consistently negative but less volatile. Dividends consistently represent a steady cash outflow, indicating a stable dividend policy.
- Overall cash position
- Changes in cash and cash equivalents fluctuate considerably, reflecting the combined effects of operating, investing, and financing cash flows. Large positive changes occur during mid-2020, corresponding with strong operating cash flow and possible financing inflows, while some quarters show negative changes aligning with investment outflows and share repurchases.
- Other observations
- Exchange rate effects on cash are generally minor but contribute to net cash changes occasionally. The net reconciliation adjustments indicate periods where non-cash and working capital changes materially impact reported cash from operations, underscoring the need to consider these when interpreting cash flow health.
