Free cash flow takeaway
A quick read on the company's cash generation and what it means for investors.
Free cash flow improved compared with the same quarter last year, supported by higher revenue and operating cash flow. However, sequentially, free cash flow declined as operating cash flow decreased and capital expenditure increased.
- Revenue increased both sequentially and year-over-year. Operating cash flow was higher than a year ago but lower than the prior quarter. Capital expenditure was above both prior periods. As a result, free cash flow margin widened against the year-ago quarter but narrowed sequentially.
- Compared to the immediately preceding quarter, revenue was higher while free cash flow and margin were lower. Versus the same quarter one year earlier, all key metrics improved, with free cash flow and margin strengthening.
