The Annual Report of a Foreign Filer

Foreign private issuers file a 20-F rather than a 10-K, which means different accounting, less frequency and a later deadline.

What the lesson covers

  1. 0:00A foreign company listed here does not file a 10-K. It files something else.
  2. 0:05The three differences. They use different accounting standards, get a later deadline, and file no quarterly reports.
  3. 0:15What the frequency gap means. Many foreign filers report twice a year, so there are long stretches with no update.
  4. 0:24IFRS versus US GAAP. Different rules on inventory, development costs and revaluation change the numbers.
  5. 0:33The 40-F shortcut. Canadian issuers may file a 40-F, which largely mirrors their home country's report.
  6. 0:41Check the standard and the reporting frequency before comparing anything.
