Each benchmark is the median of SEC filers in your industry code, from their own audited filings, read on the filing boards. Reporting, not investment advice.

Figures are as filed in audited 10-K reports and can move with restatements, acquisitions, disposals or a change in fiscal year. A range set from how past company-years turned out is not a promise about the next one, and says nothing about the share price. Reporting, not investment advice.
