10-Q
Term category: Finance/Accounting
In 10 words or less: A company's quarterly report that it files with the SEC.

Definition: The Securities and Exchange Commission requires companies to file a 10-Q each quarter (except the last quarter of their fiscal year...because a 10-k is filed at that time). The 10-Q has updated information about the companies earnings and financial situation.

StockJargon advice: The 10-Q is typically far less detailed than the 10-K report. You'll usually just find the latest revenue, earnings, and other financial data. Most of this information can be found elsewhere on the internet. But if you're really interested, you can find these documents on file with the SEC.
