The financials from the link to not specifically call out Depreciation Expense. But Operating Income should take into account Depreciation Expense.

The financials have a line below Net Income Line called "Reconciled depreciation" with about $16.7 billion. I do not know what that means (maybe this is how they get to the EBITDA metric) but maybe this is the metric you are looking for.

Most of the operating expenses seem to be in the $13 billion "R&D" spend on the Q2 2025 statement.
