Cisco Remains a Free Cash Flow Cow Supported By a Solid Net Cash Position
Image Shown: A breakdown of Cisco Systems Inc’s revenue as of the end of its fiscal 2019. Image Source: Cisco Systems – Fiscal 2019 Annual Report. On November 13, Cisco Systems reported first-quarter earnings for its fiscal 2020 (period ended October 26, 2019) that saw shares of CSCO sell off on November 14. That was likely due to the weak guidance management put out for the second quarter of the firm’s fiscal 2020, but we continue to like Cisco’s quality free cash flows and net cash balance. We’ll have plenty more to say when Cisco publishes its 10-Q filing covering the first quarter of its fiscal 2020.
