Periodically at Calcbench, we take a look at the time between earnings announcements dates and the subsequent 10-K, or 10-Q. It was something that we originally did back in 2016.

We followed that up with another post in 2018.

So we took another shot today and looked at the most recent 10-Q filing period for 405 firms in the S&P500. Here’s a table of results. As you can see, 62.5% of firms in our sample, filed both documents within a day of each other, with over 40% filing in the SAME day!

Unlike in 2016 when we started tracking this data, today, we actually collect 8-K data and have clients using it. So if you want to learn more, drop us an email or use the chat function on calcbench.

Let us know if you want more.
