Indicators
Operating Cash Flow
652.56M
Net Income
642.63M
Backed by Cash
1.02
Earnings closely match operating cash flow. This is the healthy baseline: profits are genuine and not artificially inflated.
Most investors only look at net income, which companies can manipulate through accounting rules. Cash flow is harder to fake. A ratio above 1.0 means every dollar of profit is backed by real cash.
