# Cash Flow Statements

> Returns cash flow statement data sourced from SEC EDGAR filings. Each record covers cash movements during one reporting period across operating, investing, and financing activities. `free_cash_flow` is a computed field (operating_cash_flow + capital_expenditures). Use `period=annual` for 10-K data or `period=quarterly` for 10-Q data. Results are ordered by `report_date` descending.
