How These Numbers Are Checked
Prices, returns and 52-week ranges are computed separately from Nasdaq and Cboe records and must agree. Dividend rates are checked against the per-share dividends in each company’s latest 10-Q, growth streaks against their 10-K filings, and leverage and revenue come from the balance sheets and income statements filed with the SEC. Third-quarter results replace the latest-quarter figures as soon as each company files. How we verify data.
