Valuein — SEC EDGAR Fundamentals & Smart-Money Data

Earnings Signals

get_earnings_signals

Read-onlyIdempotent

Reported earnings results and a model-derived earnings-trend signal for a company, by fiscal period: actual reported EPS, a trailing-trend EPS estimate (eps_trend_est), the deviation of actual vs that trend (eps_surprise_pct), reported revenue, and year-over-year revenue growth. IMPORTANT: eps_trend_est is NOT Wall Street analyst consensus — Valuein is sourced purely from SEC EDGAR and carries no consensus feed. It is a deterministic estimate computed from the company's own prior reported EPS, so eps_surprise_pct measures how far the print landed from its own trailing trend, not whether it 'beat the Street'. Use it to track earnings/revenue trajectory and momentum, not to claim a consensus beat or miss. Point-in-time safe — pass as_of_date to filter by SEC acceptance (accepted_at) for look-ahead-free backtests. Available on all plans.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`limit`	No	Maximum number of periods to return (1–40), most recent first. Defaults to 8 — covers 2 years of quarterly signals plus their TTM equivalents. earnings_signals.parquet currently emits one row per (entity, period_end); older rows surface here as more historical periods are published.
`ticker`	Yes	Stock ticker symbol, e.g. AAPL, MSFT — or a CIK (SEC identifier), e.g. '0000320193'.
`as_of_date`	No	Point-in-time filter: only return signals with accepted_at on or before this date. Use for backtesting to avoid look-ahead bias.

Previous value: -"ISO timestamp when the FINANCIAL STATEMENTS were last rebuilt. Use THIS — not `last_updated` — when telling a user how current the fundamentals are.

Use THIS — not `last_updated` — when telling a user how current the cross-sectional fundamentals are. The snapshot is republished on every weekday price refresh while the statements are carried forward unchanged, so `last_updated` can be far more recent than the numbers it sits next to. It is a floor for a single filer, not a ceiling: a filer with a live partition receives its filing, facts and ratios intraday (minutes after EDGAR dissemination), so an entity-scoped read may carry a filing newer than this; cross-sectional ranks (factor scores, earnings signals) refresh with the weekly bulk export."

TDQS

A4.3/5.0

Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already mark this as read-only, idempotent, and non-destructive; the description goes well beyond them by explaining the SEC EDGAR-only source, that eps_trend_est is a deterministic estimate rather than analyst consensus, what eps_surprise_pct measures, and the point-in-time semantics of accepted_at. This meaningfully reduces the risk of misinterpretation.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is front-loaded with purpose and field names before the caveats, and the caveats are substantive rather than filler. It is long but earns its length; only 'Available on all plans' is non-essential.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With an output schema present, return values don't need explaining in prose. The description covers data source, metric interpretation, the key non-consensus caveat, and backtesting usage, leaving no important decision or invocation context missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The schema covers all three parameters with descriptions, so the baseline is 3; the description adds value by explaining the output fields' meaning and by clarifying that as_of_date filters on SEC acceptance for look-ahead-free backtests. The limit and ticker semantics are already fully documented in the schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool returns reported earnings results plus a model-derived earnings-trend signal per fiscal period, naming concrete fields (actual EPS, eps_trend_est, eps_surprise_pct, revenue, YoY revenue growth). It also distinguishes the signal from Wall Street consensus, but does not name or differentiate from sibling data-retrieval tools such as get_financial_ratios or get_company_fundamentals.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Provides explicit guidance: use it to track earnings/revenue trajectory and momentum, not to claim a consensus beat or miss, and pass as_of_date for look-ahead-free backtests. It does not enumerate sibling alternatives or say when another fundamental/valuation tool would be preferred, but the use/no-use guidance is clear.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
