# Financial Report Summarizer

Annual reports run to hundreds of pages. Upload one and get the numbers that matter — revenue, profit, margins, cash, debt, segment performance, outlook and risks — exactly as reported, with the page to check each figure.

## Key facts

- For annual reports, 10-K and 10-Q filings, half-year reports, earnings releases and financial statements.
- Reports revenue, operating profit, net income, margins and growth with periods and currencies as stated.
- Covers cash, debt, segment highlights, guidance and the main risks or one-off items.
- Figures are never rounded or invented beyond what the report states — each comes with a page reference.
- Up to 300 pages; ask follow-ups such as “What drove the margin decline?”.

## What the summary covers

Financial documents mix three kinds of content: audited numbers, management's narrative, and legal boilerplate. With the **Financial report** document type, the summary focuses on the first two:

- **Headline performance** — revenue, operating profit (EBIT/EBITDA when reported), net income, earnings per share, with the period and the comparison period.
- **Margins and growth rates** as reported, including organic or constant-currency figures when given.
- **Balance sheet and cash** — cash position, free cash flow, net debt, major financing events.
- **Segments and geographies** — which businesses grew or shrank and why.
- **Outlook or guidance** — what management expects for the next period.
- **Risks and one-off items** — impairments, restructuring, litigation, currency effects.

## How to summarize a financial report

1. **Download the report as PDF** — From the company's investor-relations page or the regulator's filing system.
2. **Upload it here** — Keep “Financial report” selected; choose Detailed or Comprehensive for a full annual report.
3. **Check the key figures** — Each number cites its page; open the income statement or the MD&amp;A to confirm.
4. **Ask analytical questions** — “How did free cash flow change?”, “What are the three biggest risks?”, “What is the dividend?”.
5. **Compare periods** — Summarize this year's and last year's reports separately and compare the key points.

## Example of the output format

*Illustrative example for a fictional company:*

> - **Revenue** €4.82 bn, +6.1% year on year; +4.0% organic (p. 12).
> - **Operating margin** 11.4% vs 12.2%, due to higher energy costs in Europe (p. 15).
> - **Free cash flow** €390 m (prior year €455 m); net debt €1.1 bn (p. 48).
> - **Outlook**: organic growth of 3-5% expected next year (p. 9).
> - **Risks**: customer concentration — top 3 customers represent 27% of revenue (p. 66).

## Who uses it

- **Investors** screening companies before a deeper analysis.
- **Analysts and students** preparing company profiles or case studies.
- **Sales and procurement teams** checking the health of a customer or supplier.
- **Journalists** looking for the facts behind an earnings headline.

## Limits

Financial tables are extracted as text: complex multi-column tables can occasionally be misaligned, so verify any figure you will use. Numbers inside charts that are pure images are not read. The tool reports what the company states; it does not audit it, and nothing here is investment advice.

## FAQ

### Does it work on 10-K and 10-Q filings?

Yes. Download the filing as PDF (or print the HTML filing to PDF) and upload it. Long 10-Ks are read in parts, so Item 7 (MD&A) and the risk factors are covered.

### Will it calculate ratios?

It reports ratios the document states. Ask in the Q&A tab for a simple calculation from figures in the report — the answer will show which figures and pages it used, so you can verify the arithmetic.

### Can it compare two years?

Summarize each report separately, then compare. You can also upload a report that contains both periods (most do) and ask “How did each segment change versus last year?”.

### Can it summarize reports in other languages?

Yes. Reports in German, French, Japanese and other languages can be summarized in English or in any of 20 output languages. Currency and units are kept as stated.

### Is this investment advice?

No. It is a reading aid that extracts what the report says. Always confirm figures against the original document.
