Capital Expenditure Reduction
Capital expenditure was lower relative to both the prior quarter and the same quarter last year, which helped offset the decline in operating cash flow and boosted free cash flow.
If capital expenditure returns to higher levels, free cash flow may face pressure.
What the cash flow says
How to interpret the company's free cash flow beyond the headline number.
Operating cash flow was lower than the prior quarter but higher than the year-ago period. Capital expenditure declined in both comparisons, leading to free cash flow and margin that were higher than both prior periods.
Sequentially, revenue and operating cash flow declined, while free cash flow and margin improved due to lower capital spending. Year-over-year, all metrics except capital expenditure were higher, with capital expenditure lower.
Monitor the level of capital expenditure, as its reduction was a key factor in the current quarter's free cash flow improvement.

| TTM FCF yield | 13.1% | TTM free cash flow divided by market capitalization. |
