What Is a Cash Flow Statement TTM?
A cash flow statement TTM (Trailing Twelve Months) is a financial report that aggregates the most recent four quarters of cash flow data into a rolling 12-month view. Unlike annual reports that reflect a fixed fiscal year, TTM data is continuously updated each quarter, providing the most current picture of a company's cash generation and usage. The statement of cash flows is divided into three sections: operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities — together revealing how a company earns, spends, and manages its cash.

Key Cash Flow Metrics Explained
Operating Cash Flow
Cash generated from core business operations. This is the most important cash flow metric as it shows whether a company can sustain itself from its primary business activities.
Free Cash Flow
Operating cash flow minus capital expenditures. Represents cash available for dividends, buybacks, debt repayment, or reinvestment. Widely used in DCF valuation models.
Capital Expenditure
Money spent on acquiring or maintaining physical assets like property, plants, and equipment. High capex may indicate growth investment or asset-heavy business models.
Net Income
The starting point of the cash flow statement. Comparing net income to operating cash flow reveals the quality of earnings — large differences may signal aggressive accounting.
Stock Based Compensation
A non-cash expense added back to net income in the operating section. High SBC can dilute shareholders even when cash flow looks strong. Important to monitor for tech companies.
Common Stock Repurchased
Cash spent on share buybacks in the financing section. Buybacks reduce shares outstanding and can boost earnings per share. A sign of management confidence when funded by free cash flow.
