Financial Statements

Analyze financial statements for investment decisions: derive EBITDA and free cash flow (FCFF/FCFE) from the income statement and cash flow statement, compute ROIC, margins, and DuPont ROE decomposition, and assess quality of earnings via accruals and working capital trends. Use when the user asks about 'reading a 10-K', 'income statement vs cash flow statement', 'how to calculate free cash flow', 'FCFF vs FCFE', 'EBITDA adjustments', 'ROIC vs WACC', 'DuPont analysis', 'quality of earnings', 'accruals ratio', 'cash conversion cycle', 'revenue recognition red flags', 'deferred taxes', or 'cost basis and embedded capital gains'. Also trigger for fundamental analysis questions like whether reported earnings are backed by cash, whether a company creates value above its cost of capital, or the tax consequences of selling an appreciated position.
