Net Income
The net income exhibited variability over the periods, generally fluctuating between approximately $400 million and $800 million without a clear upward or downward long-term trend. Peaks occurred notably in September 2012 and December 2013, followed by stabilization around the $450-$550 million range in recent quarters.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation expenses showed a slow but steady increase from around $744 million to $940 million over the observed span, indicating ongoing asset usage and possible asset base growth. Amortization expenses remained relatively stable, fluctuating slightly between $6 million and $35 million.
Asset Impairments
Reported asset impairments were only noted once in the data with a $60 million charge, suggesting a minor isolated event rather than a recurring issue.
Income (Loss) from Equity-Method Investments
This category was highly volatile, including a significant negative outlier of -$436 million in September 2011. Other values oscillated between small gains and losses, indicating unstable returns from equity-method investments.
Pretax Gains from Specific Transactions
Occasional pretax gains from settlements and investment sales were recorded, notably a $-120 million loss associated with Verizon Wireless and a $-64 million loss on Clearwire Corporation in isolated quarters, suggesting nonrecurring financial events impacting pretax income.
Deferred Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes fluctuated widely from single to triple-digit millions, with peaks such as $571 million in December 2014 and $403 million in March 2016, indicating variable tax timing differences across periods.
Equity-Based Compensation and Related Tax Benefits
Equity-based compensation expenses generally remained within the $20 million to $53 million range, while associated excess tax benefits showed more considerable variability, with significant negative values indicating that tax benefits from these compensations offset a portion of the expenses inconsistently.
Noncash and Nonoperating Adjustments
Adjustments for noncash and nonoperating items were consistently high, generally around $900 million to $1.5 billion, underscoring material noncash charges or gains impacting operating cash flow calculations.
Receivables, Payables, and Other Working Capital Changes
The changes in receivables and accounts payable were erratic, alternating between positive and negative values without a sustained pattern, indicating variable working capital management or collection cycles. Other changes and net changes in operating assets and liabilities also reflected this volatility, affecting cash flow from operations variably.
Operating Cash Flows
Cash provided by operating activities remained robust and relatively stable, generally exceeding $1.2 billion each quarter and peaking at $1.8 billion, suggesting consistent operational cash generation capacity despite earnings fluctuations.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures were substantial and generally increased over the periods, rising from approximately $632 million to more than $1.3 billion by the end of the timeline. This indicates ongoing significant investment in property, plant, and equipment.
Business Acquisitions
Business acquisitions were sporadic and sometimes substantial, with large cash outflows noted in several quarters, including a $1.3 billion outflow in March 2012 and a $423 million outflow in late 2013, indicating expansion or strategic investments.
Return of Capital from Investees
There were isolated large inflows from the return of capital, for example, $1.1 billion in January 2012, suggesting occasional recovery of investments or distributions from equity holdings.
Other Investing Activities
Other investing cash flows varied widely, including significant inflows and outflows without an evident trend, highlighting the impact of miscellaneous investing transactions.
Total Investing Cash Flows
Overall cash used by investing activities was generally negative, consistent with capital expenditure and acquisition outlays, with some quarters showing relief due to acquisitions or disposals.
Financing Activities
Financing activities displayed considerable variability, including issuance and repayment of long-term debt, repurchases of common stock, and dividend payments. The issuance of long-term debt showed peaks in June and September 2011, while repayments of long-term debt were clustered in mid-period quarters. Repurchases of common stock diminished gradually over time and ceased in the final periods. Dividends paid increased moderately, suggesting steady shareholder return policies.
Cash Position
The overall increase or decrease in cash and equivalents was variable, with quarters of significant cash build-up contrasting with steep declines. This volatility reflects the combined effects of operating, investing, and financing cash flows.
