Financial Statements ⓘ

We derive the score of a company's financial statements by evaluating the weighted average sentiment across key within the statements. The cumulative score, normalized to a sum of 1, serves as a metric for assessing the company's performance during the specified period. A higher score indicates stronger performance. However, it's crucial to note that while this score provides valuable insights, it is just one of many factors to consider when making informed investment decisions. A holistic evaluation, considering various aspects of the company's financial health and market conditions, is essential for a well-rounded investment strategy.
