Recent events shaping cash flow
Near-term business events that help explain the free cash flow result.
Operating Cash Flow Decline
Operating cash flow decreased from both the prior quarter and the year-ago quarter, while revenue was mixed relative to those periods. This divergence is the strongest observable driver of the lower free cash flow.
The decline in operating cash flow directly reduced free cash flow and margin despite stable capital expenditure.
