Accessing Financials

Financials can be accessed in two ways:

  • Indirectly from the AlphaSense entity page: After a single ticker has been entered in the company search bar, a new [“Financial Data”] module will appear on the right side of the screen underneath the company summary, which will either launch the summary or specific sections of Financials

  • Directly on the toolbar: Click on the Financials icon on the vertical toolbar on the left side of the screen. Then, enter a company or ticker in the search bar to launch the summary. You then can navigate to specific sections within Financials.

AlphaSense provides access to different sources of financial data:

  • SEC filings and annual reports. Financial data in tables can be extracted with AlphaSense’s table extraction tools.

  • Standardized data from Reuters Fundamentals.

Analyst numbers (projected and historical) via I/B/E/S.Analysts numbers have the most adjustments and differ from reported GAAP/IFRS numbers the most.

These numbers are the closest to how the analyst community views a stock. However, analysts may differ in methodology and may define financial terms differently.

For example, some analysts may project a tenth of the amortization expense than their peers due to different definitions of amortization.

Standardized data has relatively fewer adjustments. Standardized data generally has adjustments for extraordinary and unusual expenses. Normalizing for such one-off events makes the data more comparable when comparing one company to another. Whenever reported numbers are restated, the restated numbers will be shown.

Actual data reported by a company can be extracted with our table tools. These numbers are inherently auditable and do not contain adjustments.
