Frequently asked questions
What is Western Digital Corporation's revenue?
Western Digital Corporation's trailing twelve-month revenue is $12.92B, and consensus projects about $44.60B by 2030. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is WDC?
In its most recent fiscal year, WDC ran a gross margin of 48.85%, an operating margin of 34.47%, and a net margin of 72.95%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does WDC generate?
WDC produced $3.51B in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is WDC's balance sheet healthy?
WDC holds $1.58B in cash and equivalents against — in long-term debt, on $8.86B of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
