Cashflow Statements API
The cash flow statement is a financial statement that highlights how cash moves through the company, including both cash inflows and outflows. This statement shows the cash flows in 3 main categories “Operating Cash Flows”, “Investing Cash Flows”, and “Financing Cash Flows”, which help investors to understand if the company is making money or losing money by conducting business.

Cashflow Statements API FAQs
Why the Cash Flow Statement is not updated?
The Cashflow Statements are rarely released with an 8-K (earnings press release) and are only filled after the company releases a 10-Q, 10-K, 20-F etc.
Which financial statements are included in the Financial Statement APIs?
FMP's Financial Statement APIs provide comprehensive access to income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements. These are available in multiple formats—real-time, historical (quarterly and annual), trailing twelve months (TTM), and as-reported filings. This flexibility ensures compatibility with a wide range of financial analysis methods, from high-level summaries to detailed forensic reviews.

If you notice any discrepancies in the financial data provided for a specific stock ticker, please reach out to our customer support team with the details. Our team will investigate the issue and work to resolve it as quickly as possible.
Why are cash flow and balance sheet fields sometimes missing (null) for Indian companies on BSE and NSE?
For companies listed on India's BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange) and NSE (National Stock Exchange), the reporting frequency differs from U.S. and European standards: Income statements are reported quarterly. Balance sheets are typically reported semi-annually. Cash flow statements are usually reported annually. Because of these reporting practices, you may see null values for fields like operatingCashFlowPerShare, freeCashFlowPerShare, cashPerShare, and certain balance sheet items when pulling quarterly data. This is not a data error — the companies themselves do not release complete cash flow or balance sheet updates every quarter. We recommend reviewing annual filings if complete financial data is required.
Can I access key financial metrics and ratios through the Financial Statement APIs?
Yes. In addition to the core financial statements, FMP's Financial Statement APIs include endpoints for essential financial ratios and key metrics. These cover indicators such as earnings per share (EPS), return on equity (ROE), debt-to-equity, and over two dozen other KPIs commonly used in valuation models and screening tools. This makes the data especially valuable for portfolio managers, fintech platforms, and academic researchers.
How I can query the Trailing Twelve Months (TTM) data for financials statements (Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow Statement)?
You use the 'quarterly' financial statements and add the parameter 'limit=4' which will provide data from the last 4 quarters, and then sum the fields for the desired values.
How often is your Financial Statement data is updated?
Typically, we are able to gather financials through an 8-K within 24 hours of an earnings report, However, this data is not as reliable or as full as the data from their 10-Q which takes a bit longer to process.
