1 Statement of Cash Flows Barry M Frohlinger Statement of Cash Flows Page 1 Barry M Frohlinger, Inc. copyright

2 Companies are required to present a Statement of Cash Flows (cash statement) for each period with the cash flows classified into three categories: Operating activities--all activities that are not specifically included in the other two categories; generally, activities involved in producing and delivering goods and providing services. (Includes cash dividends & interest income received from investing activities and interest paid for financing activities.) Investing activities--lending; investing in debt & equity instruments; investing in productive assets other than inventory (e.g., property, plant & equipment). Financing activities--borrowing & repaying debt (short- or long-term); issuing or reacquiring equity; dividends. There are two methods 1 for preparing a cash statement. Direct method--show the cash inflows and cash outflows from the cash T-account. Indirect method--show the changes in all T-accounts. Because each balance sheet balances, the changes between balance sheets balance also. Therefore, the change in the cash T- account equals the total changes in all other T-accounts. Significant non-cash investing activities and non-cash financing activities are disclosed in a footnote to the statement of cash flows. A simple illustration 2 of a typical cash statement is shown on the next page (twice, once for each of the two methods). Then, the T-accounts for the current year are shown. The last page contains the other financial statements for the company. ˆ ˆ Notice that the amounts for the direct method are from the cash T-account. Notice that the amounts for the indirect method are from the ALL T-accounts Indirect Method: Only the net increase or decrease is shown for the current asset and current liability accounts. The net increase or decrease in the cash account is shown as the bottom line on the cash statement. 1The explanation of operating activities is quite different for the two methods although the final net cash flow for operations is the same; the presentation of investing activities and financing activities is the same for both methods. 2 This illustration has no acquisitions or disposals, nor any foreign exchange activities or any non-cash investing or financing activities Statement of Cash Flows Page 2 Barry M Frohlinger, Inc. copyright

3 Important points about the Statement of Cash Flows The first line (net income) of the Statement of Cash Flow includes every revenue, expense, gain and loss from the income statement. (i.e., do not think of this as one net amount) The last line (increase or decrease in cash) includes every increase and every decrease in the cash account. (i.e., do not think of this as one net amount) The changes in balance sheet accounts are presented as follows: working capital accounts--only the net amount of increases less decreases is shown "Operating activities" is a precise accounting definition used only in the SCF. [Note: this is not the same definition that is used on the income statement.] Operating activities have been defined to exclude capital expenditures and dividends paid All companies must show the indirect presentation for operating activities (beginning with net income). Few companies also give the direct presentation of operating activities (showing cash inflows and cash outflows, rather than net amounts). Debits and Credits are precisely defined only in the SCF, where debits are in brackets and credits have no brackets Structure of the Operating Section The operating activities section of the SCF appears as follows: Net income (includes all income statement items) Adjustments: (to remove income statement items that never impact Operating Cash Flows) + Depreciation, asset writedowns, certain gains and/or losses, expense paid for with stock, etc. Adjustments: (to convert from the accrual basis to the cash basis) + Net increases and decreases in each operating asset and operating liability (one or more lines) =Cash provided by operating activities (the first subtotal on the SCF after Net Income) Income Statement Sales Revenue 15,000 Cost of Sales 6,000 Selling, General and Administrative 7,000 Operating Profit 2,000 Interest Income 100 EBIT 2,100 Interest Expense 500 EBT 1,600 Tax Expense 650 Net Income 950 From the SCF depreciation 300 amortization 100 stock based compensation 60 EBITDA Funds Flow Statement of Cash Flows Page 3 Barry M Frohlinger, Inc. copyright

7 Analysis of Operating Activities Many financial analysts attempt to compare (i) net income to (ii) cash provided by operating activities. This is an invalid comparison because of a change in definition and should not be attempted. [The change in definition in the SCF is to remove any investing activities and financing activities included in net income.] A valid comparison can be made if a new subtotal is inserted (with no change in the SCF amounts). This subtotal will be called "Potential cash provided by operating activities tm " or Expected Cash Flow m or Funds Flow. The operating activities section of the SCF appears as follows (where bold represents required reporting plus the new subtotal and the italics represents explanatory comment). Net income (includes all income statement items; i.e., all operating activities plus some investing 3 activities and some financing 4 activities) Adjustments: + Depreciation, asset writedowns, gains, losses, etc. (one or more lines) (to remove any investing 4 activities and any financing 5 activities) Funds Flow [Potential cash provided by operating activities} 6 (subtotal) Adjustments: (to convert from the accrual basis (potential) to the cash basis) + Net increases and decreases in each operating asset and operating liability (one or more lines) =Cash provided by operating activities (subtotal). } remainder of SCF. } Potential cash provided by operating activities may be compared to cash provided by operating activities because, over the entire life of any company, Potential cash provided by operating activities 5 = Cash provided by operating activities. 3 Mainly depreciation, amortization, write-down of long-lived assets and gain (loss) on sale of long-lived assets. 4 Mainly gain (loss) on retirement of long-term debt. [Deferred tax is a difficult adjustment in order to calculate Funds Flow, it is commonly adjusted in order to calculate Funds Flow ] 5 Also called Funds Flow Statement of Cash Flows Page 7

8 Free Cash Flow Some analysts give too much importance to cash provided by operating activities. The subtotal for cash provided by operating activities represents only a portion of a company's cash outflows that are necessary to operate the business 6. In addition, the company must make capital expenditures (shown as investing activities) and, if planned, pay dividends (shown as financing activities). The concept of free cash flow defined 7 as (i) cash provided by operating activities less (ii) capital expenditures 8 and less (iii) dividends provides a very useful reminder for the financial analyst--don't stop at the subtotal for cash provided by operating activities. 6 The Blockbuster financial statements highlight the weakness of focusing on Cash Flow from Operations 7 For some purposes, the analyst may define free cash flow without subtracting dividends. 8 Many analysts also include acquisitions here Statement of Cash Flows Page 8

10 Various Cash Flow Definitions Many companies use their own definitions of cash flow to enhance the reader s understanding of the firm s ability to generate cash, provide liquidity and satisfy rating agency and creditor requirements. These measures are not defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles management often considers these measures to be important to estimate the enterprise and shareholder values of the Company as a whole and of its core segments, and for allocating capital resources. Some common measures of financial results are: Earnings from Continuing Operations before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (EBITDA) Adjusted Cash Available for Distribution (Adjusted CAD). Adjusted CAD is a non-gaap measure of cash generated during a period that is available for dividend distribution, repurchase of the common shares, debt reduction and for strategic acquisitions. A common definition of Cash Available for Distribution (CAD) is Cash Provided by Operating Activities less capital spending. Many firm define Capital Spending as Mandatory [or Maintenance or Custodial] Capital Spending, a non-gaap measure, as capital expenditures, net of proceeds from sales and retirements, required to maintain its current earnings level over the cycle and to keep facilities and equipment in safe and reliable condition as well as in compliance with regulatory requirements. The measure is important to properly evaluate the Company s cash requirements, to forecast potential uses of cash and for use in valuation models. Capital spending over the custodial level is often called discretionary capital spending. Owner s Cash Flow [this is a Warren Buffett definition of CFO Cap X].

12 Analytical Issues Invisible Cash Flow Issues: Cash Spent [within the financing section] for acquiring stock options Cash Spent [within the investing section] for acquisition, how much CapX is included with acquisitions and the distortion to Cash Flow from Operations from the subsequent sale of inventory and collection of receivables Be especially careful about firms placing operating like cash outflows in the investing sections o Capital Goods producers and their respective vendor financing o Entertainment and Media firms with payments for inventory o Consumer Products firms with cash payments to the distribution channel Tax payments arising from non-operating activities Statement of Cash Flows Page 12
