| garethdav | I thought they state 10Q? |
| pamela | The 10Q is an interim report (quaterly) whilst a 10k is an annual report thus the best for analyst to use as it encompasses all the information that the 10Q produced during the year will have. |
You have a wonderful website and definitely should take some credit for your members' outstanding grades.
