Table Tools at the Document Level
Table Explorer
Table Explorer automatically stitches similar tables together to create a single historical view of any numeric chart in major SEC filings (10Q/K, 8K, 20F, 40F) without ever having to leave the AlphaSense platform.
Once you locate a filing that you would like to investigate further, hovering over the chart will pull up this feature in addition to the “View Similar Tables” and “View All Tables” navigation tabs.
By clicking the three-dot menu in the upper right-hand corner of Table Explorer, you can customize the page layout to view up to three documents side-by-side or view all the charts in ‘Cards View’
Table Explorer offers various options so you can customize your preferred view. Access the "Customize" dropdown to select the cell content, the position of the Full Year column, and the sorting and grouping of years and quarters.
Use Quarterize to convert YTD numbers to quarterly to save time when analyzing cash flow
statements or any other tables reported in 3M, 6M, 9M, and 12M format. Similarly, you can configure the table to have the fourth quarter display the FY-YTD number via the Q4 Columns dropdown.
Comparing restated and original values have also been made easy. Pink-flagged cells indicate a restatement while yellow-flagged cells indicate a unit change. Clicking these cells will display the original document on the left and the restated document on the right for easy auditing.
Clicking the ‘Export’ button in the top right corner will allow you to download the same data shown on your screen. You can also go into “Advanced options” in the export window and customize the settings to export something other than your window view.
Table Explorer is a tool that saves you time when analyzing financial data and starting your financial model. It auto-calculates metrics and helps you identify trends and seasonality quickly, which gives you more time to do higher-value analysis.

Table Tools at the Company Level
After entering a specific company (ex: Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) in the Company & Ticker search bar, a Company Overview will appear in the Document Viewer. Our Company Overviews gives you the ability to extract multiple tables using the Export All Tables to Excel button (#1) in the upper right-hand corner of the Document Viewer or extract tables individually using the Export Table to Excel button (#2) in the upper right-hand corner of each module. By clicking on either button, an Excel file with one or multiple worksheets (depending on how many table(s) you wish to export) will automatically be generated and downloaded.
