Every published concept a filing tagged, with the periods it covered, as reported in that filing at capture time. Forms 10-K, 10-K/A, 10-Q, 10-Q/A, 20-F, 20-F/A, 40-F, 40-F/A. A filing page needs at least 8 published concepts. Later filings can restate these values; the company history pages show the latest-filed value per period.

Public company accounting reference, not market prices, returns, an investment recommendation, or ALPHAC performance. Validate a separately constructed return series with the validation API; accounting values are not returns.

Use this in research

A financial period ends before its results become public. Use the filing date as a minimum availability boundary, inspect amendments, and retain the original filing vintage when testing historical signals. This latest-filed selection can contain information unavailable at the time.

These pages do not supply prices, total-return histories, corporate-action adjustments or a tradable universe. Build those inputs separately before evaluating a strategy. A profitable backtest can still reflect selection bias or costs that were left out.

Research methodology · Execution and cost assumptions · Check backtest overfitting

Build with the open-source tools

Use these accounting records as inspectable inputs. When you have constructed a return series, the validation tools can help test its statistical evidence and preserve the result with its limitations.
