How TTM capex is measured
Trailing twelve months (TTM) capital expenditure (capex) is the cash a company spent on property, plant and equipment over the most recent four fiscal quarters. It comes from the investing section of the cash flow statement and is shown here as a positive amount of cash invested. The rolling window smooths uneven project timing across quarters.
Capex is the price of growth and maintenance: data centers, factories, fleets, networks and stores. Subtract capex from EBITDA for a rough free-cash-flow proxy, and compare against TTM revenue to gauge investment intensity. Semis, telecoms, hyperscalers and utilities typically lead. Values are ranked in USD after period-average FX translation (IAS 21). Rankings USD translation methodology · IFRS IAS 21 (official)
