Monitoring diagnostic of business direction — not a prediction of returns.
Each fiscal year is read as-of that year’s own 10-K filing, so nothing restated after the fact leaks backwards. Line items this filer never tagged are omitted. Hover or tap a badge for the diagnostic behind it.

Figures are as originally filed with the SEC (point-in-time), not restated, so they can differ slightly from sites that show later-restated numbers. Why point-in-time?
