I'll pull DigitalOcean's (DOCN) free cash flow data for you.# DigitalOcean (DOCN) — Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow = Operating Cash Flow − CapEx. All figures in USD millions.

Annual ($M)

FY Operating CF CapEx Free Cash Flow
21 133.1 (109.1) 24.0
22 195.2 (120.2) 74.9
23 234.9 (124.8) 110.1
24 282.7 (186.5) 96.2
25 309.6 (139.9) 169.8

Trailing 4 quarters (TTM) ending Mar 26: $46.9M OCF − $44.7M CapEx ≈ $2.2M FCF

Key takeaways - FCF scaled from ~$24M in FY21 to ~$170M in FY25 — roughly 7× growth over 4 years. - FCF dipped in FY24 due to a CapEx step-up (~$186M, partly tied to the 2024 data-center expansion), then rebounded strongly in FY25 as CapEx moderated. - Q4-25 was an outlier: a ~$165M CapEx quarter pushed FCF negative for the period, while Q1-26 normalized back to ~$2M FCF. - Operating cash flow has grown steadily every year, indicating improving underlying cash generation even amid lumpy CapEx.

Let me check the underlying data again to see if there are any label issues.The issue is that the chart mixes both annual and quarterly rows on the same x-axis with the same date labels — for example, the 2021-12-31 date appears twice (once for the FY21 annual value, once for Q4-21 quarterly), which is likely causing the cluttered/incorrect data labels you saw. Let me rebuild the chart with quarterly data only (which gives the cleanest time series and includes the most recent Q1-26).

Loading chart...Cleaned-up chart displayed — quarterly-only time series, so each date label (Q3-21 through Q1-26) now maps to a single data point. You should see three distinct lines (Operating CF in blue, CapEx in orange/red going negative, and Free Cash Flow as the spread) without the duplicate-label issue from before.
