Earnings Report is a tool for retrieving company financial data including income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow data from SEC filings. It supports lookup by ticker or CIK with optional year and quarter filters.

The Earnings Report API provides reliable and fast access to earnings report data through a simple REST interface. Built for developers who need consistent, high-quality results with minimal setup time.

To use Earnings Report, you need an API key. You can get one by creating a free account and visiting your dashboard.

Note: Authentication is handled via the x-api-key header in your GraphQL request, not as a query parameter.

CORS Support

The Earnings Report API supports Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) with wildcard configuration, allowing you to call Earnings Report directly from browser-based applications without proxy servers.

CORS HeaderValueDescription
Access-Control-Allow-Origin*Accepts requests from any origin
Access-Control-Allow-Methods*Accepts any HTTP method
Access-Control-Allow-Headers*Accepts any request headers

Browser Usage: You can call Earnings Report directly from JavaScript running in the browser without encountering CORS errors. No proxy server or additional configuration needed.

Rate Limiting

Earnings Report API requests are subject to rate limiting based on your subscription plan. These limits ensure fair usage and maintain service quality for all Earnings Report users.

PlanRate LimitDescription
Free5 requests/minHard rate limit enforced - exceeding will return 429 errors
StarterNo LimitProduction ready - standard traffic priority
ProNo LimitProduction ready - preferred traffic priority
MegaNo LimitProduction ready - highest traffic priority

Learn more about rate limiting →

Rate Limit Headers

When rate limits apply, each Earnings Report response includes headers to help you track your usage:

HeaderDescription
X-RateLimit-LimitMaximum number of requests allowed per time window
X-RateLimit-RemainingNumber of requests remaining in the current window
X-RateLimit-ResetUnix timestamp when the rate limit window resets

Handling Rate Limits

Free Plan: When you exceed your rate limit, Earnings Report returns a 429 Too Many Requests status code. Your application should implement appropriate backoff logic to handle this gracefully.

Paid Plans: No rate limiting or throttling applied. All paid plans (Starter, Pro, Mega) are production-ready.

Best Practices for Earnings Report:

  • Monitor the rate limit headers to track your Earnings Report usage (Free plan only)
  • Cache earnings report responses where appropriate to reduce API calls
  • Upgrade to Pro or Mega for guaranteed no-throttle Earnings Report performance

Note: Earnings Report rate limits are separate from credit consumption. You may have credits remaining but still hit rate limits when using Earnings Report on Free tier.

Error Codes

The Earnings Report API uses standard HTTP status codes to indicate success or failure:

CodeMessageDescriptionSolution
200OKRequest successful, data returnedNo action needed - request was successful
400Bad RequestInvalid request parameters or malformed requestCheck required parameters and ensure values match expected formats
401UnauthorizedMissing or invalid API keyInclude x-api-key header with valid API key from dashboard

Can I use Earnings Report in production?

Can I use Earnings Report from a browser?
Yes! The Earnings Report API supports CORS with wildcard configuration, so you can call it directly from browser-based JavaScript without needing a proxy server. See the CORS section above for details.
What happens if I exceed my Earnings Report credit limit?

When you reach your monthly credit limit, Earnings Report API requests will return an error until you upgrade your plan or wait for the next billing cycle. You'll receive notifications at 80% and 95% usage to give you time to upgrade if needed.
