Revenue

Billions of dollars, as filed.

Net income

What was left after all costs, interest and taxes: the bottom line. Below the line is a loss.

Billions of dollars: net income attributable to the company's shareholders, as filed (GAAP).

Free cash flow

Cash brought in by running the business, minus spending on property and equipment. Below the line means the company spent more than it brought in that quarter.

Billions of dollars. Calculated by the Tribune: cash from operations minus payments for property and equipment, both as filed.

Shares outstanding

How many shares exist. When the number rises, each share owns a smaller slice of the company.

Cash and short-term investments compared with debt

Cash on hand next to what the company owes in loans and bonds.

Every figure and its filing

Each figure links to the 10-Q or 10-K it came from. "No data" means it wasn't filed in a form the methodology accepts; nothing is estimated.
