Guides to corporate reports

Last updated: 6 October 2026

Short, practical answers to the questions that come up before you need a specific report: which document to use, where it is published, and how to be sure you have the right one.

Annual report vs 10-K: what is the difference?

The Form 10-K and the annual report to shareholders are two different documents. What each contains, when it is due, and which one to use.

What is a Universal Registration Document (URD)?

The annual disclosure document of many companies listed in France and elsewhere in the EU: what it contains, how it relates to the annual financial report, and where to find one.

How to find a company's sustainability report

Where companies publish sustainability, ESG and climate reports, where CSRD sustainability statements sit inside the annual report, and how to find the right year.

Reporting calendar

Data rather than a guide: the months in which companies publish their annual and sustainability reports, by country and sector, from the publication dates in the archive.
