Overview

The segments dataset provides structured breakdowns of key company metrics, such as net sales or operating income, organized by categories like product lines or geographic regions. Each entry includes a total figure and a list of sub-items that show how the total is distributed across different parts of the business. Segment structures vary by company and reporting period. The segments provided are always based on data from the annual reports of the companies and coverage is limited to the companies in the S&P 500 index.
Our segments data is sold separately. Please get in touch if you’re interested in access or pricing details.
