Serial issuers show here even when no single quarter looks large.
How it is computed here
(Newest count - count about three years earlier, on one share basis) / earlier count x 100
Combines more than one basis. See the note. Two filed counts about three years apart, on one share basis. The span actually measured is stated beside the figure. Filed under risk. Lower is the stronger reading, other things equal.
No published threshold exists for this figure, so this page prints none. Read it against the company's own history and its peers instead.
When it misleads
- The span is the one between two real filings, stated beside the figure.
- A company with less than about three years of filings has no figure here, and says so.
