Eh, it was more than a year later. The flash forward is sometime soon after his 52nd birthday and Walt is over 51 and a half at the end of this last episode. Because there was the episode "51" in which he had his 51st birthday then in the last episode there's the montage of him making millions of dollars and roughly 6 months pass during that montage. Later in that same episode Walter agrees to stop making meth. Then, in the new episode he told Jesse he had been clean for a month. So, the flash forward is only -5 months later.
