How much of it is documented
Behind the headline figures: 96 listings say a tax return or P&L backs at least one year, 11 offer a broker's restatement, 44 assert numbers with nothing named behind them, and 15 publish too little to classify. A cited document means a broker typed the words into a form — nothing has been received, read or verified here. It is still the difference between a number with a paper trail and a number without one, and it is the first thing to ask any broker about.
