## How to call it through Zero

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need fundamental financial statement data — specifically cash flow — for a publicly traded company. Prefer this over earnings or income statement endpoints when the focus is on liquidity, capital expenditure, free cash flow generation, or cash from financing/investing activities. Best suited for equity research, DCF modeling, or screening stocks by cash generation quality.
