How to compare it honestly
Compare with the company's own history and capital-intensity peers; capex cycles distort single periods.
When it is not served
Not computed when capex is missing for the period - missing capex is missing evidence, never zero.
Missing data is missing evidence: it is never shown as zero and never treated as a conclusion.
What it cannot tell you
A single period can be flattered or depressed by working-capital swings and capex timing.
Questions worth asking next
- Is the conversion stable across several periods?
- What drove the gap between net income and free cash flow?
