Too much data to verify.
Rating: 6 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
Financial estimates from analyst estimates, screening for M&A transactions and capital raises, screening for shareholder rights plans and being able to use the date to complete various analyses. Using FactSet to check financials. We use FactSet often to complete public company analyses is our most likely use cases and is able to quickly do calendar figures even if the company is on an off calendar fiscal year.
Pros
- Market Figures (Stock Price, Ent Value, Equity Value)
- Rights Plan Data
- Screening for Selected Data
Cons
- Often unclear where estimates come from
- Excel popup for formulas is often difficult to use and glitchy
- Providing source of data
Likelihood to Recommend
Often has data where other sources would not have Well suited for large sets of data and analyses on public company data with a lot of public companies, getting the formulas to pull data is very helpful and saves a lot of time. Less appropriate for pulling investor data and co-investment data that Pitchbook seems more suited
