A Python application used to download and parse complete submission filings from the sec.gov/edgar website. The goal for this project is to make it easy to get filings from the SEC website onto your computer for the companies and forms you desire.
A few hurdles that I've tried to ease with this project:
- CIK to Ticker Equivalent - probably the biggest hurdle is just figuring out the CIK for the company you want. I've tried to bypass this via a reference file mapping CIK to tickers. I'm sure there is a better way, but for now it seems to work.
- Organizing the Data - I decided to keep it simple and organize the data similar to the SEC Edgar website (which is explained below)
- Filter by Ticker
- Filter by Form Type
- Extract contents of Complete Submission Filing

Extraction Complete
- Created folder structure which mimics sec.gov website structure (see "Paths and Directory Structure" below)
- Downloaded the necessary idx files (files containing the links to the sec filings) and merge them into combined file (fyi 1.9 GB csv)
- loaded tickers from tickers.csv file and filters them
- load forms from settings.py file and filters them
- filter against forms set in settings.py file, and will then start downloading the individual filings for the tickers in the tickers.csv file.

How about we extract the sections of a 10-K Filing and perform some NLP?
$ cd py-sec-edgar
$ python examples/extract_sections.pyOr, how about we extract financial data from the Financial Reports.xlsx file:
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/320193/000032019320000096/Financial_Report.xlsx
^ fyi, this financial report file is is contained in most complete submission 10-K/Q filings

- Most Efficient and Courteous way of getting data from SEC website
- Contains everything the company filed in filing in one file
- Not making multiple download requests per filing
The CIK is the unique numerical identifier assigned by the EDGAR system to filers when they sign up to make filings to the SEC. CIK numbers remain unique to the filer; they are not recycled.
In the example above, "0001193125-15-118890" is the "accession number," a unique identifier assigned automatically to an accepted submission by the EDGAR Filer System. The first set of numbers (0001193125) is the CIK of the entity submitting the filing. This could be the company or a third-party filer agent. Some filer agents without a regulatory requirement to make disclosure filings with the SEC have a CIK but no searchable presence in the public EDGAR database. The next 2 numbers (15) represent the year. The last series of numbers represent a sequential count of submitted filings from that CIK. The count is usually, but not always, reset to 0 at the start of each calendar year.
