HOW TO FIND INFORMATION ABOUT A COMPANY
To practice searching for a company,
click here, or read the
step-by-step instructions below.
|
1. |
Click on the Company button. (Where is this?) |
|
2. |
Type in the company name or ticker symbol. |
|
3. |
Select if you want to search for "All Companies" or "Ultimate
Parent." If you are not sure, start with "All
Companies." |
|
4. |
If no companies match your search then try a search using "All
Companies" or add more information - such as
industry code, product or
brand name, or location - and search again. |
|
5. |
When a search is
successful, the search results will appear listing one or more
companies with that name or ticker symbol. Companies with the
highest revenue are listed first. Click on the desired company. |
|
6. |
Basic information
about the company will be displayed. Additional information
can be found by clicking on the tabs near the top of the page.
Only tabs in bold contain information for this company.
Click here for descriptions of what content each tab provides. |
Search tip:
Sometimes a search
will result in a list of articles instead of company information. This may
be because the company is not included in the database or you need to try
a different name in the search. For example, a search for "Wegman" in "All
Companies" gives a list of articles but a search for "Wegmans" (with the
s) gives the company information.
