Filings we support

SECSift opens anything a company has filed. The types below carry its financial and business story, and are what the filings list shows first. To see everything else the company has ever filed, turn on "All filings" above the list: registration statements, amendments, correspondence, prospectuses, and the rest, grouped by form.

Core reports

  • 10-K: The annual report. A full look at the year, with the audited financial statements, the business, and the risks. This is the big one.
  • 10-Q: The quarterly report. A shorter update filed three times a year, between the annual reports.
  • 8-K: An event report. Filed when something worth telling investors happens, like quarterly earnings, a new deal, or a leadership change.

Foreign companies

Companies based outside the United States file on a different set of forms:

  • 20-F: The annual report for a foreign company. The overseas version of a 10-K.
  • 40-F: The annual report for a Canadian company. It often wraps the real report inside attachments, and SECSift pulls those out so you read the actual report, not a cover page.
  • 6-K: A foreign company's update during the year. This is how many foreign companies report quarterly results, since they do not file a 10-Q.

Governance and ownership

  • DEF 14A: The proxy statement. Covers executive pay, the board, and the items shareholders vote on.
  • Forms 3, 4, and 5: Insider filings. They report when a company's officers, directors, or large owners buy or sell its stock. These open in a dedicated view built for the form, a clean table of the transactions plus that insider's recent trade history at the company, rather than the usual document reader.
  • SC 13D: Filed when an investor takes a stake above 5% with plans to influence the company. Often an activist.

Offerings and mergers

  • S-1: A registration statement, most often for an IPO. The prospectus: the business, the risks, how the shares are being sold, and who is selling them.
  • S-4 and F-4: Filed for a merger or a stock exchange offer. They cover the deal terms, the background, and the fairness opinion.

Note: Some of these forms hide the real report inside attachments, or put the important sections in an unusual place. SECSift is built to find the actual content in each form, so the reader and the AI see the full filing, not just a cover page.
