About Earnings Prints
What this site is
Earnings Prints turns the public quarterly filings of a fixed set of large US-listed companies into charts and short, plain-language context. Each company has a history page, and each new quarter gets its own page with revenue, net income, diluted earnings per share, a twelve-quarter chart, a comparison with the same quarter a year earlier and a note from the editor. Weekly summary pages collect the companies that reported in a given week; they are published once the week's reports have been checked and annotated by the editor.
The aim is narrow on purpose: show what the filings say, show it the same way every time, and say clearly when a comparison is not like-for-like.
Who is behind it
Earnings Prints is an independent publication. It is run by an independent editor who publishes under the pen name Alex Brix; the editor's real name is not published, and no other credentials are claimed. Every page that carries advertising has been read by the editor against the filing before the advertising is switched on. Contact details are on the contact page.
Where the numbers come from
All figures come from documents that companies file with the US Securities and Exchange Commission and that are public on SEC EDGAR: the quarterly report (Form 10-Q), the annual report (Form 10-K) and the earnings press release attached to a Form 8-K (Exhibit 99.1). Every figure on a quarter page links to the exact filing by its accession number.
When a company publishes its press release before the full report, the page may first show preliminary figures. They are labelled as such and replaced from the 10-Q or 10-K once it is filed. A figure typed from a press release appears only after it has matched an independent source: the company's XBRL data or a second, blind reading by another person. Figures taken from 10-Q and 10-K XBRL data are used as filed and checked by automated tests. If a figure does not match, it is shown as n/a or the page is not published. The full rules are on the methodology page.
What the editor's note is
Each quarter page, company history page and weekly page carries a short note on that page's own data: a detail in the filing, a comparison across quarters or companies, or a caveat about comparability. The notes are prepared by the editorial team with the help of automation, including AI, using only numbers that appear on the page or in the cited filing, and with no forecasts and no outside news. The editor reads each page in full and approves it before advertising is switched on; the note is signed "Reviewed by the Earnings Prints editor". Details are on the methodology page.
What this site does not do
- It does not give investment advice, price targets or recommendations to buy, sell or hold anything.
- It does not publish forecasts of any kind, price moves or upcoming earnings dates. History pages list only the timestamps of releases that already happened.
- It does not use adjusted or non-GAAP numbers.
- It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or by any company mentioned. Company names and tickers are used only to say which company a figure belongs to.
