Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes, but you must have a premium subscription. Commercial use of the Earnings API is not permitted on the free tier. See our pricing page to choose a plan that fits your needs.
  • Sign up for a free account to instantly get your API key, then pass it in the X-Api-Key header on every request. The documentation above includes ready-to-run examples in cURL, Python, JavaScript, Node.js, and more.
  • Your API requests will simply be denied once you hit your monthly quota — you will never be charged more than the plan you signed up for. To increase your quota, you can upgrade your plan any time on our pricing page.
  • The API responds with a standard HTTP status code and a JSON error message describing the problem. See our error codes reference for the full list of codes and how to resolve each one, or contact support if you need help.
  • The Earnings API returns comprehensive earnings report data for any public company listed in the United States, sourced directly from official SEC filings (10-Q and 10-K). Q1, Q2, and Q3 figures come from the 10-Q filings, while Q4 data is derived from the 10-K by subtracting the first three quarters for income statement fields. For company filing index data, see the related SEC API.
  • Identify the company with either the ticker parameter (e.g. ADBE) or the cik parameter (e.g. 796343), then set year and period together, where period must be one of q1, q2, q3, q4, or fy. If you omit year and period, the API returns the most recent earnings data; see all available finance endpoints at our APIs page.
  • Each response includes company_info, plus three full statement objects: income_statement (revenue, gross profit, operating income, net income, and EPS), balance_sheet (total assets, liabilities, equity, cash, and debt), and cash_flow (operating, investing, and financing flows, capex, and share repurchases), along with filing_info SEC metadata. For upcoming report dates, pair it with the Earnings Calendar API or read management commentary via the Earnings Call Transcript API.
  • Yes, the year parameter accepts any valid year after 2000, but accessing historical earnings data from before the current year requires a premium subscription. To get started and obtain access, you can create an account.
