New Details about Public Companies
Due to popular demand, we have added new data variables for publicly traded companies to YE Time Series. Central Index Key (CIK) values have been added to help match our data to other sources like Compustat.  Over 15,500 unique CIK values are available, along with over 4,500 CUSIPs. The CIK and CUSIP values were gleaned from public filings published by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Separately, we also have Market Cap, Total Liabilities, Cash and Cash Equivalents, EV to Sales and Annual Sales Revenues from SEC filings in a separate file that can be linked by our record’s unique ID values.
