And we dive deeper into auditor tracking
Welcome to our weekly reports featuring impactful and unusual disclosures as extracted by Hudson Labs' algorithms.
Filings from the week of January 24-28.
Top red flags from last week:
STANLEY BLACK & DECKER INC (SWK) | 8-K | $30B SWK found an error in their EPS calculation, causing them to restate their prior year annual report.
RCI HOSPITALITY HOLDINGS INC (RICK) | 8-K | $860M The company’s President/CEO, Eric Langan, is jointly guaranteeing the loan.
NETFLIX INC (NFLX) | 10-K | $240B Netflix is overflowing with content, and content liabilities. On balance sheet content liabilities increased from $19.2B to $23.3B, and off-balance sheet content obligations increased from $12.2B to $15.8B.
IKENA ONCOLOGY INC (IKNA) | 8-K | $500M Douglas Carlson, IKNA’s COO and Executive VP of Finance, is stepping down “to pursue other professional opportunities with broader responsibility”. Perhaps in his next role he’ll have three c-suite titles?
Auditors make a difference
When we added auditor tracking to our platform - a new trend jumped out. Certain audit partner names come up again and again next to high risk companies.
Here’s a few audit partners whose clients have an average risk score of at least 70*, and the names of a few companies they’ve audited.
*Risk Score are available on our institutional platform. Our risk score range from 0-100, with 70-79 a moderate-high risk, and 80+ as high risk.
