Applied Materials Inc. (AMAT) 10-K Red Flags

Risk signals extracted deterministically from Applied Materials Inc.’s SEC 10-K/10-Q XBRL filings — no LLM, every finding cites the underlying data.

Detected red flags (10)

  • Free cash flow deteriorating: FCF declined +23.9% YoY (from $7.49B to $5.70B). With OCF at $7.96B and capex at $2.26B, cash generation capacity is weakening — monitor for dividend/buyback sustainability.
  • NEW: Restatement of financial statements in latest filing: The term "restatement of" "previously issued" appears in recent 10-K/10-Q filings but was NOT present in the prior 24-month period. This is a new risk disclosure that warrants attention. Found in 2 filing(s).
  • Endogenous analysis: Free cash flow declined despite stable or rising capex, indicating the cash burn is operational rather than investment-driven. This is a structural concern — cost reduction or asset sales may be needed to restore FCF.
  • 6 new XBRL disclosure(s) in latest filing — expanding reporting scope.
  • 20 disclosure(s) dropped from prior year — reduced reporting granularity.
  • 1 new risk-language term(s) detected in filing text: Restatement of financial statements.
