SEC and Regulatory Filings
10-Q
A quarterly financial filing public companies submit to the SEC.
Also called: quarterly filing, SEC quarterly report
What it means
A 10-Q is a quarterly report that public companies file with the SEC. It updates investors on recent financial results, business conditions, and certain risks between annual 10-K filings. It is less comprehensive than a 10-K but still very important.
Why it matters
The 10-Q helps users track what has changed during the year instead of waiting for the next annual filing.
