Restatements

Companies restate earlier results: a later filing or an amendment (10-K/A, 10-Q/A) can change a number that was reported before. We keep every value we have recorded for a period and line item, as a numbered version, and the newest version is the one the financials endpoint returns.

The revisions endpoint lists the periods and items that changed, newest period first. For each one it gives the current value and every version:

{
  "period": "2026Q3", "period_end": "2026-04-25", "item": "revenue", "current_value": 61500000000,
  "versions": [
    { "version": 1, "value": 61200000000, "current": false, "recorded_at": "2026-05-20T02:00:00Z" },
    { "version": 2, "value": 61500000000, "current": true, "recorded_at": "2026-08-14T02:00:00Z" }
  ]
}

What recorded_at means#

recorded_at is when our update saw the new value, not the date of the filing. Our data is refreshed from SEC EDGAR within hours of a new filing, and every few days for every company. The financials response and the profile give you the link to the company's filings on sec.gov to find the filing that changed the value.

Using it#

• To backtest, use the version with the recorded_at before your decision date.
• Small revisions are normal; split adjustments change per-share values and share counts of earlier periods together.
• A company or item without revisions returns an empty data array.
