Companies Metadata

Companies Metadata

Overview

The Companies Data draws from the Core Financials dataset, providing general descriptive information from all U.S. publicly traded companies. Coverage includes both SEC filers and exclusive access to OTC listed filers.  This dataset is specifically designed to allow for easy comparability across companies, while still providing the depth of detail needed for a thorough analysis. Data is extracted from 8-K, 10-K, 10-Q, 20-F, S-1 and other SEC and OTC filings and, after being processed by a rules-based programming engine. This process ensures a consistent set of key data elements and ratios that are comparable across all industries and sectors.

This resource provides basic metadata information about companies from Core Financials and Full Financials resources
