Yes, theoretically the reduction in net income by stock option expense should reduce free cash flow, but there are some who argue that since stock option expense is a non cash expense, they would add it back in to free cash flow, much in the same manner as we add depreciation and amortization expense back in to free cash flow. In my opinion, those who argue such, are mainly looking for another excuse to continue to overstate the performance of tech companies.
