10q forms are submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) by organizations for the purpose of comprehensive reporting of financial performance. Firms are required to submit their financial information and details regarding business operations. 10q forms are unaudited and filed for the first three quarters of the year. For the final quarter, organizations have to submit another form known as the 10-K which is heavily audited.
10q forms are unaudited reports which compare the financial statements of the previous years with the organization’s current ones. Unlike the 10-K, a form 10-q contains fewer details and stays unaudited. The filing deadline for 10q forms depends on the fiscal year but it is mandatory for organizations to file them every year.
If you want to decipher a company’s earnings report, you must be able to understand and read 10q forms correctly.
Here are the most crucial details to watch out for when filling up 10q forms online.
Other sections of the form under assets would include details such as Accounts Payable, Trade Receivables, and Tax Payments. The amounts of liabilities and assets when subtracted from each other give you the Shareholder’s Equity which basically shows the company’s total worth. Loss from operations and deferred assets are key values which tell how a company is performing financially every quarter.
U.S. investors require all public companies to furnish proof of financial statements every year to ensure their credibility and activities in the industry. 10q forms give an overview of their financial performance year-by-year and make it easier to assess their financial capital and risk profiles in the market. There’s a lot of information presented on these forms and when dealing with a voluminous number of files, it becomes important for organizations to have automation workflows in place.
Here is how you automate data extraction from 10q forms using Docsumo:-
1. Create a new document type named 10q on the platform for reading your forms automatically. The way you do this is by logging into app.docsumo.com and going to 'Document Types'. Select 'Create New Document Type' and get your 10q form ready. The user interface will let you upload your first 10q form and start reading it.

All the uploaded files have keys listed and you can find values extracted for some of them. If you don't see the value extracted for a data variable, help the software to capture the value for it.
5. Once all the fields are extracted accurately, 'Approve' it. Repeat the process for few documents. After doing it for a few documents, the software starts to capture data for all the fields accurately. Go ahead and 'Review' and 'Approve' at least 20 10q forms.
