Course details

** New Course for 2018! **

Steve S says  "Another great course by Chris"

Jacob W says "Really takes the mystery out of a 10K report.  it's such a huge report, daunting to read.  After this course it seemed so much easier to understand and I was able to interpret information included in 10K's far better"

The Securities and Exchange Commission has several reporting requirements for public companies, one of which is the filing of a 10K, or Form 10-K, annually.  Often this report is 100+ pages, and full of valuable, and not so valuable, information.  Learn how to dissect this report by following along as we use Apple as a case study. 

This course is in 2 main sections.  

First, we learn all about the 10K overall.  

• Who is the Securities and Exchange Commission
• What are the deadlines for a Securities and Exchange Commission 10K
• What are the sections of the 10K
• Who is required to file a 10K
• What is the process 
• And Much More!

Second, we go through, section by section, the November 2017 Securities and Exchange Commission 10K report for Apple. 

• Review each and every page of Apples 10K
• Point out the areas that are most important to focus on
• Also show which areas can be skimmed over
• Denote the common threads between all 10K filers
• Determine any oddities in Apples 10K
• And Much Much More!
