About Standard & Poor's Factual Stock Reports This S&P service provides factual research coverage enabling companies to reach a wide investor audience of Buy and Sell-side investors, helping them understand the fundamentals and business prospects. Many of these companies are not widely covered by Wall Street analysts. Currently profiling over 1,000 issuers, S&P Factual Stock Reports increase market awareness for companies in the investment community with insightful commentary and key statistics/information. Updated weekly with the latest pricing, trading volume and other data, the reports include recent developments, an income statement analysis and financial review, key operating information, performance charts, business summary, fundamental data, industry and peer comparisons, institutional holdings analysis, Street Consensus and opinions, and news. Because coverage of these reports is sponsored by the issuer, S&P does not offer investment opinions concerning the advisability of investing in these stocks. Standard & Poor's Factual Stock Reports are produced separately from any other analytic activity of Standard & Poor's. Standard & Poor's Factual Report research has no access to non-public information received by other units of Standard & Poor's. Standard & Poor's does not trade on its own account. Note: All U.S. and Canadian Companies listed on a National Exchange (not covered by S&P's STARS research) are eligible to obtain this coverage.
