Darktrace lowers cash flow guidance to account for share awards
LONDON (Reuters) -British cybersecurity company Darktrace lowered its guidance for full-year cash flow on Wednesday due to an accounting change related to executive share awards when it listed, as it reported a 33% rise in first-half earnings. The company said its 2023 guidance range for free cash flow would be about 50% to 55% of adjusted core earnings, down from a previous 60% to 65%. That change reflected the accounting treatment for the net settlement of tax obligations from the vesting of IPO-related share awards to two executive directors, it said.
