USD in millions except per-share and share counts. Every value links to the filing it came from — hover for the us-gaap tag, click for the 10-K/10-Q on sec.gov.

Figures as reported in SEC filings, normalized by stonks with the tag mapping shown on hover; missing tags render as “—”, never as zero. Free cash flow is derived (operating cash flow − capex) with both parents recorded in its lineage. Quarterly view shows as-reported 10-Q periods; Q4 synthesis ships in Phase 1. See methodology.
