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 Income (Loss)
- The net income shows significant volatility over the periods analyzed, with losses observed in certain quarters such as early 2017 and the first quarter of 2020, while other periods exhibit strong profitability, particularly from mid-2018 onward. The most notable increases occur from 2020 into early 2022, with substantial peaks in several quarters, reflecting improved operational performance or one-time gains.
- Depreciation and Amortization
- Depreciation and amortization expenses remain relatively stable throughout the timeline, generally fluctuating between approximately 16,000 and 28,000 thousand US dollars. Slight increases are evident over time, indicating ongoing capital asset investments and amortization of intangible assets.
- Non-Cash Operating Lease Cost
- Non-cash operating lease costs appear starting in mid-2019 and remain fairly consistent around 15,000 to 20,000 thousand US dollars, aligning with lease accounting changes and reflecting recognized expenses for operating leases.
- Goodwill and Tradename Impairment
- There are noticeable spikes in goodwill and tradename impairment during 2017 and 2018, including a significant one-time charge in 2017, signaling asset write-downs possibly due to acquisitions or reassessments of intangible asset values.
- Asset Impairments
- Asset impairments show sporadic occurrences with some considerable charges in 2017, 2018, and particularly in 2019, suggesting periodic recognition of asset devaluations or disposals impacting earnings.
- Stock-Based Compensation Expense
- Stock-based compensation expenses fluctuate considerably, peaking markedly in late 2020 coinciding with a substantial one-time increase. This suggests either an adjustment in stock compensation plans or a surge in grants or vestings during that period. Otherwise, expenses remain moderately steady.
- Non-Cash Finance Lease Interest Expense
- This expense emerges from mid-2019 and exhibits a gradual increase, consistent with rising lease liabilities or long-term financing leases recognized on the balance sheet.
- Product Recalls
- Costs related to product recalls appear intermittently, with some negative values indicating potential reversals or recoveries. Peaks and troughs suggest variable operational risks or quality control issues across different quarters.
- Deferred Income Taxes
- Deferred income taxes show fluctuations with both positive and negative values, including significant writedowns in some quarters, reflecting changes in tax positions, asset valuations, or timing differences in income recognition.
- Gain/Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
- There are substantial gains and losses recorded on debt extinguishment, especially notable spikes in 2021 and 2022. These highlight active debt refinancing or repurchase activities impacting expenses or income in those periods.
- Accounts Receivable
- The accounts receivable balances alternate between positive and negative changes, indicating fluctuations in collections or billing cycles. Large negative movements point to either aggressive collection efforts or write-offs at certain times.
- Merchandise Inventories
- Inventory levels demonstrate significant volatility with large negative adjustments in some quarters suggesting either disposals, write-downs, or changes in inventory management strategies. Positive spikes occur occasionally, indicating restocking or accumulation.
- Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets
- Prepaid expenses and other assets experience considerable variability, with multiple quarters showing large negative values, reflecting utilization or reductions, and positive spikes indicating new payments or asset recognition.
- Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses
- This liability shows marked fluctuations, alternating between large increases and decreases, indicative of variability in payment timing, accrued expenses recognition, or operational cash management.
- Deferred Revenue and Customer Deposits
- Deferred revenue and deposits display inconsistent patterns, reflecting changes in customer advance payments or revenue recognition methods, with both material increases and decreases throughout the periods.
- Cash Flow from Operating Activities
- Operating cash flows are generally strong and positive in many quarters, peaking in certain periods. However, intermittent negative quarters surface, aligning with periods of net losses or operational challenges. Overall, the trend suggests resilient cash generation capability despite income statement volatility.
- Capital Expenditures
- Capital expenditures fluctuate considerably with some quarters showing substantial investment outlays while others depict lower levels. There is a tendency towards high spending, particularly from late 2017 to mid-2022, reflecting ongoing expansion or maintenance of operational assets.
- Investing Activities
- Net cash used in investing activities is mostly negative, consistent with ongoing capital investments and acquisitions. Occasional inflows are noted from asset sales or maturities of investments, but overall the cash flow reflects investment in business growth or asset management.
- Financing Activities
- Financing cash flows exhibit extreme variability with large inflows and outflows reflective of debt issuance, repayments, stock repurchases, and equity-related financing transactions. Notably, major debt refinancing activities occur in some years, and there are significant stock repurchase programs intermittently, affecting financing cash flow significantly.
- Debt Activity
- Borrowings and repayments under various credit facilities and loans demonstrate active liability management, with large-scale borrowings early in the series and aggressive repayments in subsequent quarters. Convertible notes issuance and related hedges show strategic capital structure adjustments over time.
- Equity Transactions
- Equity-related movements, including stock option exercises, tax withholdings on awards, and share repurchases, fluctuate notably. Particularly large repurchase values in select periods indicate a focus on returning capital to shareholders or managing share count strategically.
- Overall Financial Trends
- The company’s financial data reflects a pattern of cyclical volatility in earnings and cash flows, driven by investment cycles, financing activities, asset impairments, and operational lease accounting changes. Significant emphasis on managing debt levels and capital expenditures is evident, alongside fluctuating working capital components. The data suggests responsiveness to market conditions and strategic financing to support growth and restructuring initiatives.
