Alphabet Inc. cash flow reconciliation, Jan 1, 2024 through Jun 30, 2024One connected Sankey reconciles operating, investing and financing net cash flows through a shared cash pool, from beginning cash to ending cash. Ribbons flow left to right on one dollar scale. Activity totals are dark gray; beginning and ending cash are blue. Cash basis for beginning and ending balances and net cash change: Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. Intermediate calculation bars are lighter gray. Net income is green for profit and red for loss. Identified asset purchases, sales and maturities are blue in either cash direction. Orange marks positive customer-advance and deferred-revenue changes that add to operating cash in the reconciliation. These are net changes, not gross customer receipts. Negative changes are neutral reconciliation adjustments; they do not by themselves identify cash payments. Purple identifies capital transactions such as borrowing, repayments, share issuance and dividends. Free cash flow is a separate comparison, not an added cash flow.

Chart connections

  • Beginning cash plus operating, investing and financing cash flows plus the exchange-rate effect equals ending cash. Negative amounts reduce cash.
  • Financing contributions meet at a reconciliation junction before connecting to the net cash total.
  • Investing contributions meet at a reconciliation junction before connecting to the net cash total.
  • Operating reconciliation adjustments are not all independent cash receipts.
  • Net income enters operating cash directly in the reconciliation. The adjustment junction contributes the remaining $8.21B after reconciling the other positive and negative adjustments. These connections depict an accounting reconciliation, not traced cash receipts.
  • Each activity has one net cash bar connected to the shared cash pool. Positive activity totals enter the pool; negative activity totals leave the pool to fund that activity's net payments. The central pool does not assign a particular funding source to a particular payment.
  • The intermediate calculation bars include both sides of the displayed activity breakdowns; they are not additional cash flows.
  • Operating cash flow minus cash purchases of property, plant and equipment equals free cash flow: 55,488,000,000 US dollars minus 25,198,000,000 US dollars equals 30,290,000,000 US dollars.
