sec-fincancial-statement-data-set

Helper tools to analyze the Financial Statement Data Sets from the U.S. securities and exchange commission (sec.gov).

For a detail description of the content and the structure of the dataset, see https://www.sec.gov/files/aqfs.pdf.

The SEC financial statement datasets contain financial information that companies are required to disclose to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These financial statements include the balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows, and statement of stockholders' equity. The datasets also include footnotes and other disclosures that provide additional information about a company's financial position and performance. The financial statements are typically presented in a standardized format, making it easier to compare the financial performance of different companies. The datasets are useful for a wide range of purposes, including financial analysis, credit analysis, and investment research.

TL;DR

The SEC releases quarterly zip files, each containing four CSV files with numerical data from all financial reports filed within that quarter.

However, accessing data from the past 12 years can be time-consuming due to the large amount of data - over 120 million data points in over 2GB of zip files.

This library simplifies the process of working with this data and provides a convenient way to extract information from the primary financial statements - the balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows.

It also provides an integration with the https://rapidapi.com/hansjoerg.wingeier/api/daily-sec-financial-statement-dataset API and therefore providing a possibility to receive the latest filings on a daily basis and not just every three months.

Latest news / most important changes from previous versions

See the Release Notes for details.

1.4 -> 1.4.2

  • Fix in StandardStatementPresenter:
    The StandardStatementPresenter also considers qtrs when displaying the information. This was a problem when displaying information for income statements and cash flows, since they often show data for different periods.
  • Improvements in the Standardizer framework as preparation to implement the income statement and cash flow standardizer.

1.3 -> 1.4

  • Introducing the Standardizer Framework and the Balance Sheet Standardizer as a first implementation.
    The Balance Sheet Standardizer makes the balance sheets easily comparable.
    Check out the following notebooks:
    07_00_standardizer_basics
    07_01_BS_standardizer
  • Efficiency improvements for MultiReportCollector.

1.2 -> 1.3

  • New notebook 06_bulk_data_processing_deep_dive
    This first version shows how datasets can be created with data from all available zip files. It shows a faster parallel approach which uses more memory and cpu resources and a slower serial approach which uses significant less resources.
  • New package u_usecases introduced. This package is a place to provide concrete examples what you can do with the secfsdstools library. As a first usecase, the logic shown and explained in the 06_bulk_data_processing_deep_dive is provided as logic within the modul bulk_loading.

1.1 -> 1.2

  • secfsdstools.e_filter.rawfiltering.USDOnlyRawFilter is new and removes none USD currency datapoints
  • MainCoregFilter was renamed to MainCoregRawFilter
  • OfficialTagsOnlyFilter was renamed to OfficialTagsOnlyRawFilter
  • All filters have been implemented for the JoinedDataBag as well: secfsdstools.e_filter.joinedfiltering
  • New notebook 05_filter_deep_dive.

Principles

The goal is to be able to do bulk processing of the data without the need to do countless API calls to sec.gov.

Therefore, the quarterly zip files are downloaded and indexed using a SQLite database table. The index table contains information on all filed reports since about 2010, over 500,000 in total. The first download will take a couple of minutes but after that, all the data is on your local harddisk.

Using the index in the sqlite db allows for direct extraction of data for a specific report from the appropriate zip file, reducing the need to open and search through each zip file.

Moreover, the downloaded zip files are converted to the parquet format which provides faster read access to the data compared to reading the csv files inside the zip files.

The library is designed to have a low memory footprint, only parsing and reading the data for a specific report into pandas dataframe tables.

Installation

The project is published on pypi.org. Simply use pip install to install it:

pip install secfsdstools

The library has been tested for python version 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, and 3.10

If you want to contribute, just clone the project and use a python 3.7 environment. The dependencies are defined in the requirements.txt file or use the pyproject.toml to install them.

Configuration

To configure the library, create a file called ".secfsdstools.cfg" in your home directory. The file only requires the following entries:

[DEFAULT]
downloaddirectory = c:/users/me/secfsdstools/data/dld
parquetdirectory = c:/users/me/secfsdstools/data/parquet
dbdirectory = c:/users/me/secfsdstools/data/db
useragentemail = your.email@goeshere.com

If you don't provide a config file, one will be created the first time you use the api and put it inside your home directory. You can then change the content of it or directly start with the downloading of the data.

The download directory is the place where quarterly zip files from the sec.gov are downloaded to. The parquet directory is the folder where the data is stored in parquet format. The db directory is the directory in which the sqllite db is created. The useragentemail is used in the requests made to the sec.gov website. Since we only make limited calls to the sec.gov, you can leave the example "your.email@goeshere.com".

Attention when using on Windows

In order to support parallel processing, this library uses the multiprocessing package. For instance when transforming the zip files to the parquet format or when reading data from different files.

However, in order for it to work on Windows when calling python yourscript.py, it is necessary that the logic is started within the "main block" (if __name__ == '__main__':).

Of course, your main logic can be in another package that you import, but the "entry point" needs to be a "main block":

yourscript.py:

import yourpackage as yp

if __name__ == '__main__':
  yp.run()

Otherwise, you will observe the following kind of error messages:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\site-packages\multiprocess\spawn.py", line 116, in spawn_main
    exitcode = _main(fd, parent_sentinel)
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\site-packages\multiprocess\spawn.py", line 125, in _main
    prepare(preparation_data)
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\site-packages\multiprocess\spawn.py", line 236, in prepare
    _fixup_main_from_path(data['init_main_from_path'])
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\site-packages\multiprocess\spawn.py", line 287, in _fixup_main_from_path
    main_content = runpy.run_path(main_path,
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\runpy.py", line 269, in run_path
    return _run_module_code(code, init_globals, run_name,
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\runpy.py", line 96, in _run_module_code
    _run_code(code, mod_globals, init_globals,
  ...

For details have a look at the python documentation:

It is not a problem if you run it inside Jupyter.

Downloading the data files from sec and index the content

In order to download the data files and create the index, just call the update() method:

from secfsdstools.update import update

if __name__ == '__main__':
    update()

The following tasks will be executed:

  1. All currently available zip-files are downloaded form sec.gov (these are over 50 files that will need over 2 GB of space on your local drive)
  2. All the zipfiles are transformed and stored as parquet files. Per default, the zipfile is deleted afterwards. If you want to keep the zip files, set the parameter 'KeepZipFiles' in the config file to True.
  3. An index inside a sqlite db file is created

If you don't call update "manually", then the first time you call a function from the library, a download will be triggered.

Moreover, at most once a day, it is checked if there is a new zip file available on sec.gov. If there is, a download will be started automatically. If you don't want 'auto-update', set the 'AutoUpdate' in your config file to False.

Using the index db with a db browser in order to get an overview of all available report


Note: This is just if you are curious about the content of the database file. The library itself also contains functions to analyze the content of the database file.


The "index of reports" that was created in the previous step can be viewed using a database viewer that supports the SQLite format, such as DB Browser for SQLite.

(The location of the SQLite database file is specified in the "dbdirectory" field of the config file, which is set to "/secfsdstools/data/db" in the default configuration. The database file is named "secfsdstools.db".)

There are only two relevant tables in the database: "index_parquet_reports" and "index_parquet_processing_state".

The "index_parquet_reports" table provides an overview of all available reports in the downloaded data and includes the following relevant columns:

  • adsh
    The unique id of the report (a string).
  • cik
    The unique id of the company (an int).
  • name
    The name of the company in uppercases.
  • form
    The type of the report (e.g.: annual: 10-K, quarterly: 10-Q).
  • filed
    The date when the report has been filed in the format YYYYMMDD (Note: this is stored as a number).
  • period
    The date for which the report was created (the date on the balancesheet). Also in the format YYYYMMDD.
  • fullPath
    The path to the downloaded zip files that contains the details of that report.
  • url
    The url which takes you directly to the filing of this report on the sec.gov website.

For instance, if you want to have an overview of all reports that Apple has filed since 2010, just search for "%APPLE INC%" in the name column.

Searching for "%APPLE INC%" will also reveal its cik: 320193

If you accidentally delete data in the database file, don't worry. Just delete the database file and run update() again (see previous chapter).

Working with the SECFSDSTools library

Note: the code within this chapter is also contained in the "01_quickstart.ipynb" notebook. If you want to follow along, just open the notebook.

A first simple example

Goal: present the information in the balance sheet of Apple's 2022 10-K report in the same way as it appears in the original report on page 31 ("CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS"): https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/320193/000032019322000108/aapl-20220924.htm

from secfsdstools.e_collector.reportcollecting import SingleReportCollector
from secfsdstools.e_filter.rawfiltering import ReportPeriodAndPreviousPeriodRawFilter
from secfsdstools.e_presenter.presenting import StandardStatementPresenter

if __name__ == '__main__':
    # the unique identifier for apple's 10-K report of 2022
    apple_10k_2022_adsh = "0000320193-22-000108"
  
    # us a Collector to grab the data of the 10-K report. an filter for balancesheet information
    collector: SingleReportCollector = SingleReportCollector.get_report_by_adsh(
          adsh=apple_10k_2022_adsh,
          stmt_filter=["BS"]
    )  
    rawdatabag = collector.collect() # load the data from the disk
    
   
    bs_df = (rawdatabag
                       # ensure only data from the period (2022) and the previous period (2021) is in the data
                       .filter(ReportPeriodAndPreviousPeriodRawFilter())
                       # join the the content of the pre_txt and num_txt together
                       .join()  
                       # format the data in the same way as it appears in the report
                       .present(StandardStatementPresenter())) 
    print(bs_df) 

Overview

The following diagram gives an overview on SECFSDSTools library.

Overview

It mainly exists out of two main processes. The first one ist the "Date Update Process" wich is responsible for the download of the Financial Statement Data Sets zip files from the sec.gov website, transforming the content into parquet format, and indexing the content of these files in a simple SQLite database. Again, this whole process can be started "manually" by calling the update method, or it is done automatically, as it described above.

The second main process is the "Data Processing Process", which is working with the data that is stored inside the sub.txt, pre.txt, and num.txt files from the zip files. The "Data Processing Process" mainly exists out of four steps:

  • Collect
    Collect the rawdata from one or more different zip files. For instance, get all the data for a single report, or get the data for all 10-K reports of a single or multiple companies from several zip files.
  • Raw Processing
    Once the data is collected, the collected data for sub.txt, pre.txt, and num.txt is available as a pandas dataframe. Filters can be applied, the content can directly be saved and loaded.
  • Joined Processing
    From the "Raw Data", a "joined" representation can be created. This joins the data from the pre.txt and num.txt content together based on the "adhs", "tag", and "version" attributes. "Joined data" can also be filtered, concatenated, directly saved and loaded.
  • Present
    Produce a single pandas dataframe out of the data and use it for further processing.

The diagramm also shows the main classes with which a user interacts. The use of them is described in the following chapters.

General

Most of the classes you can interact with have a factory method which name starts with "get_". All this factory method take at least one optional parameter called configuration which is of type "Configuration".

If you do not provide this parameter, the class will read the configuration info from you configuration file in your home directory. If, for whatever reason, you do want to provide an alternative configuration, you can overwrite it.

However, normally you do not have to provide the "configuration" parameter.

Index: working with the index

The first class that interacts with the index is the IndexSearch class. It provides a single method find_company_by_name which executes a SQL Like search on the name of the available companies and returns a pandas dataframe with the columns 'name' and 'cik' (the central index key, or the unique id of a company in the financial statements data sets). The main purpose of this class is to find the cik for a company (of course, you can also directly search the cik on https://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch).

from secfsdstools.c_index.searching import IndexSearch

index_search = IndexSearch.get_index_search()
results = index_search.find_company_by_name("apple")
print(results)

Output:

                           name      cik
      APPLE GREEN HOLDING, INC.  1510976
   APPLE HOSPITALITY REIT, INC.  1418121
                      APPLE INC   320193
         APPLE REIT EIGHT, INC.  1387361
          APPLE REIT NINE, INC.  1418121
         APPLE REIT SEVEN, INC.  1329011
             APPLE REIT SIX INC  1277151
           APPLE REIT TEN, INC.  1498864
         APPLETON PAPERS INC/WI  1144326
  DR PEPPER SNAPPLE GROUP, INC.  1418135
   MAUI LAND & PINEAPPLE CO INC    63330
          PINEAPPLE ENERGY INC.    22701
  PINEAPPLE EXPRESS CANNABIS CO  1710495
        PINEAPPLE EXPRESS, INC.  1654672
       PINEAPPLE HOLDINGS, INC.    22701
                PINEAPPLE, INC.  1654672

Once you have the cik of a company, you can use the CompanyIndexReader to get information on available reports of a company. To get an instance of the class, you use the get get_company_index_reader method and provide the cik parameter.

from secfsdstools.c_index.companyindexreading import CompanyIndexReader

apple_cik = 320193
apple_index_reader = CompanyIndexReader.get_company_index_reader(cik=apple_cik)

First, you could use the method get_latest_company_filing which returns a dictionary with the latest filing of the company:

print(apple_index_reader.get_latest_company_filing())

Output:

{'adsh': '0001140361-23-023909', 'cik': 320193, 'name': 'APPLE INC', 'sic': 3571.0, 'countryba': 'US', 'stprba': 'CA', 'cityba': 'CUPERTINO', 
'zipba': '95014', 'bas1': 'ONE APPLE PARK WAY', 'bas2': None, 'baph': '(408) 996-1010', 'countryma': 'US', 'stprma': 'CA', 
'cityma': 'CUPERTINO', 'zipma': '95014', 'mas1': 'ONE APPLE PARK WAY', 'mas2': None, 'countryinc': 'US', 'stprinc': 'CA', 
'ein': 942404110, 'former': 'APPLE INC', 'changed': 20070109.0, 'afs': '1-LAF', 'wksi': 0, 'fye': '0930', 'form': '8-K', 
'period': 20230430, 'fy': nan, 'fp': None, 'filed': 20230510, 'accepted': '2023-05-10 16:31:00.0', 'prevrpt': 0, 'detail': 0, 
'instance': 'ny20007635x4_8k_htm.xml', 'nciks': 1, 'aciks': None}

Next there are two methods which return the metadata of the reports that a company has filed. The result is either returned as a list of IndexReport instances, if you use the method get_all_company_reports or as pandas dataframe if you use the method get_all_company_reports_df. Both method can take an optional parameter forms, which defines the type of the report that shall be returned. For instance, if you are only interested in the annual and quarterly report, set forms to ["10-K", "10-Q"].

# only show the annual reports of apple
print(apple_index_reader.get_all_company_reports_df(forms=["10-K"]))

Output:

                 adsh     cik       name  form     filed    period                                           fullPath  originFile originFileType                                                url

Collect: collecting the data for reports

The previously introduced IndexSearch and CompanyIndexReader let you know what data is available, but they do not return the real data of the financial statements. This is what the Collector classes are used for.

All the Collector classes have their own factory method(s) which instantiates the class. Most of these factory methods also provide parameters to filter the data directly when being loaded from the parquet files. These are

  • the forms_filter
    lets you select which report type should be loaded (e.g. "10-K" or "10-Q").
    Note: the fomrs filter affects all dataframes (sub, pre, num).
  • the stmt_filter
    defines the statements that should be loaded (e.g., "BS" if only "Balance Sheet" data should be loaded)
    Note: the stmt filter only affects the pre dataframe.
  • the tag_filter
    defines the tags, that should be loaded (e.g., "Assets" if only the "Assets" tag should be loaded)
    Note: the tag filter affects the pre and num dataframes.

It is also possible to apply filter for these attributes after the data is loaded, but since the Collector classes apply this filters directly during the load process from the parquet files (which means that fewer data is loaded from the disk) this is generally more efficient.

All Collector classes have a collect method which then loads the data from the parquet files and returns an instance of RawDataBag. The RawDataBag instance contains then a pandas dataframe for the sub (subscription) data, pre (presentation) data, and num (the numeric values) data.

The framework provides the following collectors:

  • SingleReportCollector
    As the name suggests, this Collector returns the data of a single report. It is instantiated by providing the adsh of the desired report as parameter of the get_report_by_adsh factory method, or by using an instance of the IndexReport as parameter of the get_report_by_indexreport. (As a reminder: instances of IndexReport are returned by the CompanyIndexReader class).

    Example:

    from secfsdstools.e_collector.reportcollecting import SingleReportCollector
    
    apple_10k_2022_adsh = "0000320193-22-000108"
    
    collector: SingleReportCollector = SingleReportCollector.get_report_by_adsh(adsh=apple_10k_2022_adsh)
    rawdatabag = collector.collect()
    
    # as expected, there is just one entry in the submission dataframe
    print(rawdatabag.sub_df)
    # just print the size of the pre and num dataframes
    print(rawdatabag.pre_df.shape)
    print(rawdatabag.num_df.shape)
    


    Output:

                       adsh     cik       name     sic countryba stprba     cityba  ...
    0  0000320193-22-000108  320193  APPLE INC  3571.0        US     CA  CUPERTINO  ...
    (185, 10)

  • MultiReportCollector
    Contrary to the SingleReportCollector, this Collector can collect data from several reports. Moreover, the data of the reports are loaded in parallel, this especially improves the performance if the reports are from different quarters (resp. are in different zip files). The class provides the factory methods get_reports_by_adshs and get_reports_by_indexreports. The first takes a list of adsh strings, the second a list of IndexReport instances.

    Example:

    from secfsdstools.e_collector.multireportcollecting import MultiReportCollector
    apple_10k_2022_adsh = "0000320193-22-000108"
    apple_10k_2012_adsh = "0001193125-12-444068"
    
    if __name__ == '__main__':
        # load only the assets tags that are present in the 10-K report of apple in the years
        # 2022 and 2012
        collector: MultiReportCollector = \
            MultiReportCollector.get_reports_by_adshs(adshs=[apple_10k_2022_adsh,
                                                             apple_10k_2012_adsh],
                                                      tag_filter=['Assets'])
        rawdatabag = collector.collect()
        # as expected, there are just two entries in the submission dataframe
        print(rawdatabag.sub_df)
        print(rawdatabag.num_df)  
    


    Output:

  • ZipCollector
    This Collector collects the data of one or more zip (resp. the folders that contain the parquet files of this zip files). And since every of the original zip files contains the data for one quarter, the names you provide in the get_zip_by_name or get_zip_by_names factory methods reflect the quarter which data you want to load: e.g. 2022q1.zip.



    Example:

    from secfsdstools.e_collector.zipcollecting import ZipCollector
    
    # only collect the Balance Sheet of annual reports that
    # were filed during the first quarter in 2022
    if __name__ == '__main__':
        collector: ZipCollector = ZipCollector.get_zip_by_name(name="2022q1.zip",
                                                               forms_filter=["10-K"],
                                                               stmt_filter=["BS"])
    
        rawdatabag = collector.collect()
    
        # only show the size of the data frame
        # .. over 4000 companies filed a 10 K report in q1 2022
        print(rawdatabag.sub_df.shape)
        print(rawdatabag.pre_df.shape)
        print(rawdatabag.num_df.shape)    
    


    Output:

    (2404949, 9)
    
  • CompanyReportCollector
    This class returns reports for one or more companies. The factory method get_company_collector provides the parameter ciks which takes a list of cik numbers.

    Example:

    from secfsdstools.e_collector.companycollecting import CompanyReportCollector
    
    if __name__ == '__main__':
        apple_cik = 320193
        collector = CompanyReportCollector.get_company_collector(ciks=[apple_cik],
                                                                 forms_filter=["10-K"])
    
        rawdatabag = collector.collect()
    
        # all filed 10-K reports for apple since 2010 are in the databag
        print(rawdatabag.sub_df)
    
        print(rawdatabag.pre_df.shape)
        print(rawdatabag.num_df.shape)

Raw Processing: working with the raw data

When the collect method of a Collector class is called, the data for the sub, pre, and num dataframes are loaded and being stored in the sub_df, pre_df, and num_df attributes inside an instance of RawDataBag.

The RawDataBag provides the following methods:

  • save, load
    The content of a RawDataBag can be saved into a directory. Within that directory, parquet files are stored for the content of the sub_df, pre_df, and num_df. In order to load this data directly, the static method RawDataBag.load() can be used.
  • concat
    Several instances of a RawDataBag can be concatenated into one single instance. In order to do that, the static method RawDataBag.concat() takes a list of RawDataBag as parameter.
  • join
    This method produces a JoinedRawDataBag by joining the content of the pre_df and num_df based on the columns adsh, tag, and version. It is an inner join. The joined dataframe appears as pre_num_df in the JoinedRawDataBag.
  • filter
    The filter method takes a parameter of the type FilterRaw, applies it to the data and produces a new instance of RawDataBag with the filtered data. Therefore, filters can also be chained like a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag.filter(filter1).filter(filter2). Moreover, the __get__item method is forwarded to the filter method, so you can also write a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag[filter1][filter2].

It is simple to write your own filters, just get some inspiration from the once that are already present in the Framework (module secfsdstools.e_filter.rawfiltering:

  • AdshRawFilter
    Filters the RawDataBag instance based on the list of adshs that were provided in the constructor.
    a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag.filter(AdshRawFilter(adshs=['0001193125-09-214859', '0001193125-10-238044']))
    
  • StmtRawFilter
    Filters the RawDataBaginstance based on the list of statements ('BS', 'CF', 'IS', ...).
    a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag.filter(StmtRawFilter(stmts=['BS', 'CF']))
    
  • TagRawFilter
    Filters the RawDataBaginstance based on the list of tags that is provided.
    a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag.filter(TagRawFilter(tags=['Assets', 'Liabilities']))
    
  • MainCoregRawFilter
    Filters the RawDataBag so that data of subsidiaries are removed.
    a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag.filter(MainCoregRawFilter()) 
    
  • ReportPeriodAndPreviousPeriodRawFilter
    The data of a report usually also contains data from previous years. However, often you want just to analyze the data of the current and the previous year. This filter ensures that only data for the current period and the previous period are contained in the data.
    a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag.filter(ReportPeriodAndPreviousPeriodRawFilter()) 
    
  • ReportPeriodRawFilter
    If you are just interested in the data of a report that is from the current period of the report then you can use this filter. For instance, if you use a CompanyReportCollector to collect all 10-K reports of this company, you want to ensure that every report only contains data for its own period and not for previous periods.
    a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag.filter(ReportPeriodRawFilter()) 
    
  • OfficialTagsOnlyRawFilter
    Sometimes company provide their own tags, which are not defined by the us-gaap XBRL definition. In such cases, the version columns contains the value of the adsh instead of something like us-gab/2022. This filter removes unofficial tags.
    a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag.filter(OfficialTagsOnlyRawFilter()) 
    
  • USDOnlyRawFilter
    Reports often also contain datapoints in other currency than USD. So it might happen that the same datapoint in a balance sheet is present in different currencies. If you are just interested in the USD currency, then we can use this filter.
    a_filtered_RawDataBag = a_RawDataBag.filter(USDOnlyRawFilter()) 
    

Have a look at the filter_deep_dive notebook.

Joined Processing: working with joined data

When the join method of a RawDataBag instance is called an instance of JoinedDataBag is returned. The returned instance contains an attribute sub_df, which is a reference to the same sub_df that is in the RawDataBag. In addition to that, the JoinedDataBag contains an attribut pre_num_df, which is an inner join of the pre_df and the num_df based on the columns adsh, tag, and version. Note that an entry in the pre_df can be joined with more than one entry in the num_df.

The JoinedDataBag provides the following methods:

  • save, load
    The content of a JoinedDataBag can be saved into a directory. Within that directory, parquet files are stored for the content of the sub_df, pre_df, and num_df. In order to load this data directly, the static method JoinedDataBag.save() can be used.
  • concat
    Several instances of a JoinedDataBag can be concatenated in one single instance. In order to do that, the static method JoinedDataBag.concat() takes a list of RawDataBag as parameter.
  • filter
    The filter method takes a parameter of the type FilterJoined, applies it to the data and produces a new instance of JoinedDataBag with the filtered data. Therefore, filters can also be chained like a_filtered_JoinedDataBag = a_JoinedDataBag.filter(filter1).filter(filter2). Moreover, the __get__item method is forwarded to the filter method, so you can also write a_filtered_JoinedDataBag = a_JoinedDataBag[filter1][filter2]. Note: The same filters that are present for the RawDataBag are also available for the JoinedDataBag. Just look into the module secfsdstools.e_filter.joinedfiltering
  • present
    The idea of the present method is to make a final presentation of the data as pandas dataframe. The method has a parameter presenter of type Presenter.

Present

It is simple to write your own presenter classes. So far, the framework provides the following Presenter implementations (module secfsdstools.e_presenter.presenting):

  • StandardStatementPresenter
    This presenter provides the data in the same form, as you are used to see in the reports itself. For instance, the primary financial statements balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow display the different positions in rows and the columns contain the different dates/periods of the data. Let us say you want to recreate the BS information of the apples 10-K report of 2022, you would write:

    apple_10k_2022_adsh = "0000320193-22-000108"
    
    collector: SingleReportCollector = SingleReportCollector.get_report_by_adsh(
          adsh=apple_10k_2022_adsh,
          stmt_filter=["BS"]
    )
    rawdatabag = collector.collect()
    bs_df = rawdatabag.filter(ReportPeriodAndPreviousPeriodRawFilter())
                      .join()
                      .present(StandardStatementPresenter())
    print(bs_df) 
    


    Output:

                          adsh coreg                                              tag       version stmt  report  line     uom  negating  inpth  qrtrs_0/20220930  qrtrs_0/20210930

    If you compare this with the real report at https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/320193/000032019322000108/aapl-20220924.htm you will notice, that order of the tags and the values are the same.

  • Standardizer
    Even if xbrl is a standard on how to tag positions and numbers in financial statements, that doesn't mean that financial statements can then be compared easily. For instance, there are over 3000 tags which can be used in a balance sheet. Moreover, some tags can mean similar things or can be grouped behind a "parent" tag, which itself might not be present. For instance, "AccountsNoncurrent" is often not shown in statements. So you would find the position for "Accounts" and "AccountsCurrent", but not for "AccountsNoncurrent". Instead, only child tags for "AccountsNoncurrent" might be present.

    The standardizer helps to solve these problems by unifying the information of financial statements.

    With the standardized financial statements, you can then actually compare the statements between different companies or different years, and you can use the dataset for ML.

    Have a look at standardizer_basics which explains it in more details.

    • BalanceSheetStandardizer
      The BalanceSheetStandardizer collects and/or calculates the following positions of balance sheets:

      • Assets
        • AssetsCurrent
          • Cash
        • AssetsNoncurrent
      • Liabilities
        • LiabilitiesCurrent
        • LiabilitiesNoncurrent
      • Equity
        • HolderEquity (mainly StockholderEquity or PartnerCapital)
          • RetainedEarnings
          • AdditionalPaidInCapital
          • TreasuryStockValue
        • TemporaryEquity
        • RedeemableEquity
      • LiabilitiesAndEquity

    With just a few lines of code, you'll get a comparable dataset with the main positions of a balance sheet for Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon: (see the stanardize the balance sheets and make them comparable for details)

    from secfsdstools.e_collector.companycollecting import CompanyReportCollector
    from secfsdstools.e_filter.rawfiltering import ReportPeriodRawFilter, MainCoregRawFilter, OfficialTagsOnlyRawFilter, USDOnlyRawFilter
    from secfsdstools.f_standardize.bs_standardize import BalanceSheetStandardizer
    
    bag = CompanyReportCollector.get_company_collector(ciks=[789019, 1652044,1018724]).collect() #Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon
    filtered_bag = bag[ReportPeriodRawFilter()][MainCoregRawFilter()][OfficialTagsOnlyRawFilter()][USDOnlyRawFilter()]
    joined_bag = filtered_bag.join()
    
    standardizer = BalanceSheetStandardizer()
    
    standardized_bs_df = joined_bag.present(standardizer)
    
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    # Group by 'name' and plot equity for each group
    # Note: using the `present` method ensured that the same cik has always the same name even if the company name did change in the past
    for name, group in standardized_bs_df.groupby('name'):
      plt.plot(group['date'], group['Equity'], label=name, linestyle='-')
    
    # Add labels and title
    plt.xlabel('Date')
    plt.ylabel('Equity')
    plt.title('Equity Over Time for Different Companies (CIKs)')
    
    # Display legend
    plt.legend()

Troubleshooting


Problem: I receive error messages like the following when I try to start a script on windows:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\site-packages\multiprocess\spawn.py", line 116, in spawn_main
    exitcode = _main(fd, parent_sentinel)
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\site-packages\multiprocess\spawn.py", line 125, in _main
    prepare(preparation_data)
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\site-packages\multiprocess\spawn.py", line 236, in prepare
    _fixup_main_from_path(data['init_main_from_path'])
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\site-packages\multiprocess\spawn.py", line 287, in _fixup_main_from_path
    main_content = runpy.run_path(main_path,
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\runpy.py", line 269, in run_path
    return _run_module_code(code, init_globals, run_name,
  File "C:\ieu\Anaconda3\envs\sectestclean\lib\runpy.py", line 96, in _run_module_code
    _run_code(code, mod_globals, init_globals,
 ...

Solution: This library uses the multiprocessing package. However, on Windows this works only correctly if the "entry point" of the script is within a if __name__ == '__main__': block.

Therefore, change your scripts from

import xy

your code goes here

to

import xy

if __name__ == '__main__':
    your code goes here

For details have a look at the python documentation:
