Company Fundamentals
get_company_fundamentalsRetrieve standardized SEC EDGAR fundamental financial metrics for a US public company. Returns revenue, gross profit, operating income, net income, EPS (diluted), total assets, total liabilities, stockholders' equity, cash & equivalents, total debt, operating cash flow, and capital expenditures for one or more fiscal periods. Data sourced from 10-K (annual) and 10-Q (quarterly) filings. Point-in-time: no look-ahead bias — pass as_of_date (YYYY-MM-DD) to reconstruct exactly the information set known on that date. This returns the raw as-reported line items ONLY. Do NOT derive metrics from them yourself — a hand-computed figure carries no fact_id and cannot be verified against a filing. Every derived metric is already served pre-computed WITH provenance: free cash flow, FCF margin, margins, ROE/ROA/ROIC, leverage and the price multiples come from get_valuation_metrics; the full ratio table (incl. per-share, owner-earnings, growth) from get_financial_ratios; intrinsic value from compute_dcf. If one of those is gated on your plan, say so and offer the upgrade — never substitute your own arithmetic.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | Maximum number of periods to return (1–40). Defaults to 5. | |
| period | No | Filing period granularity. Annual uses 10-K; quarterly uses 10-Q. | annual |
| strict | No | When true, fail with PLAN_LIMIT_EXCEEDED if the plan cannot satisfy the requested limit. Default false: return what's available and explain the gap in _meta.truncation. | |
| ticker | Yes | Stock ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL, MSFT, BRK.B | |
| as_of_date | No | Point-in-time date (YYYY-MM-DD). Only returns facts with accepted_at on or before this date — eliminates look-ahead bias for backtesting. Omit for the full dataset. | |
| fiscal_year | No | Fiscal year (YYYY). Omit to return the most recent available years. | |
| lineage_detail | No | Per-period provenance envelope + per-metric availability/provenance sidecars. 'compact' (default) returns source_filing + source_url (the SEC Inline-XBRL viewer with every tagged fact highlighted when the filing is iXBRL, else the rendered document, else the filing index) + sec_url/document_url/inline_viewer_url + restated flag, plus lean per-metric availability + fact_id + source_filing. 'full' adds first_filed_at + accepted_at + per-metric source_url + computed inputs[]. 'off' omits all provenance. | compact |
| min_confidence | No | Withhold any metric whose backing fact scores below this confidence [0, 1]. The score is a PENALTY FROM EVIDENCE — every fact starts at 1.0 and is docked only for something checkable: a failed accounting identity (-0.40), a later filing that revised the number (-0.20), an unaudited filing (-0.05). It is NOT a function of age: a clean 1995 fact scores the same as a clean 2026 one. Guide: 0.95 = 'no evidence against this number' (the normal case — ~99.9% of facts, every year); 0.80 = tolerate a fact a later filing revised; 0.60 = tolerate a filing whose accounting identities failed. A withheld metric is reported as availability:'suppressed' — never dropped silently, and never as 'not_reported', which would claim the company did not file it. Facts with no confidence score are withheld too (fail closed). | |
| response_format | No | Output shape. 'flat' (default) returns the legacy `metrics` object plus the additive `metrics_availability`/`metrics_provenance`/`metrics_display` sidecars — `metrics_display` holds each figure already rendered for prose ("$402.83B"), and you should quote it verbatim rather than reformatting `metrics` yourself. 'envelope' additionally attaches `metric_envelopes` — one canonical {metric,value,unit,scale,period,availability,provenance,display} object per metric. Both shapes carry the same display strings. | flat |
