Overview

Events are the central structure for organizing all core data related to a company. Each event acts as a container that groups associated items such as documents and audio files under a unique identifier. Events also include metadata like title, date, and type, enabling efficient categorization and retrieval.

​
How it works

Events are typically aligned with a company’s fiscal reporting periods, such as quarterly or semi-annual results, and follow a structured lifecycle:
1

Event Creation

An event is created as soon as an estimated or confirmed date becomes available. At this point, the event exists as a placeholder and does not contain any associated content.
If the event is created after the event has already happened all information will be added to the event at once.
2

Pre-Event Content

As the event approaches, companies often release financial filings and supporting materials, such as earnings reports, investor presentations, or slides. These documents are the first to be uploaded to the event.
The type of content available can differ for each event.
3

Live Event and Post-Processing

After the live event concludes, we process and upload the audio recording. Once the audio is available, a transcript is generated and added to the event.At this stage, the event contains all relevant materials, including filings, slides, audio, and transcript, providing a complete view of the event and its content.
All events are not streamed live. Some events are recorded and processed afterwards.

​
Event types

There are numerous different event types, each with their own unique characteristics and data available. We try to keep the number of event types to a minimum without grouping widely different events into the same type. This is a trade-off between data completeness and usability. The types can be retrieved using the event types endpoint. Below you will find a more detailed description of each event type to help you understand the different types.
An earnings call is a scheduled conference call where a company’s management discusses financial performance for a specific reporting period, typically quarterly (Q1-Q4) or semi-annually (H1/H2). These calls cover key metrics such as revenue, profits, and strategic outlook. A Q&A session with analysts and investors usually follows.

A Trading Update is an unscheduled or interim update, often released between two financial reporting periods, providing current financial or operational performance data. These events are typically shorter than Earnings Calls and may include key figures such as revenue or margins to inform stakeholders of near-term trends.
This event type refers to investor-focused conferences hosted by financial institutions or third parties. If a publicly listed company participates, the event is included, regardless of whether it is a sell-side or non-sell-side conference, provided it is publicly accessible to investors.
A conference call held to discuss a newly announced merger or acquisition. Company leadership outlines the rationale, terms, and strategic impact of the transaction.
Highlights a company’s initiatives, goals, or progress in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) areas. ESG Updates communicate long-term sustainability strategies and commitments to stakeholders.
An event where a company shares material information relevant to investors, such as financial performance, capital raises, strategic shifts, or leadership changes. These updates may be presented through calls, press releases, or presentations.
A company-led update on specific developments or topics, financial or operational, intended to keep stakeholders informed and maintain transparency.
Relevant to companies conducting clinical or regulatory studies. These updates report progress, data, or milestones from ongoing research, including patient enrollment, interim results, or regulatory interactions.
Announces final outcomes of a clinical or scientific study. Typically includes key findings around efficacy, safety, or other endpoints that may impact regulatory approval or commercialization.
A presentation hosted by a company featuring Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs), recognized experts in medical or scientific fields. KOL Events provide third-party insights on clinical data, product pipelines, or market trends, often in the healthcare or biotech sectors.
An in-depth event hosted by the company for investors and analysts. Executive leaders present long-term strategies, financial performance, competitive positioning, and business updates to foster transparency and engagement.

A company event targeting institutional investors and analysts. Topics include financial strategy, capital allocation, business performance, and forward-looking guidance over a multi-year horizon.

Covers significant regulatory events involving the U.S. FDA, such as approvals, filings, or designations (e.g., Fast Track, Breakthrough Therapy). These announcements are critical to stakeholders monitoring regulatory progress.
The company provides forward-looking projections for key metrics like revenue or earnings. Guidance events help align market expectations with management’s outlook, especially amid evolving conditions.
A shareholder meeting held outside of the regular AGM schedule to vote on urgent or exceptional matters, such as mergers, amendments to governance documents, or major transactions.
A yearly meeting where shareholders review company performance, vote on resolutions (e.g., board elections, dividends), and interact with company leadership.

  • Investor Presentation: Financially focused and designed for investors, covering performance, strategy, and growth outlook.
  • Corporate Presentation: Broader and less financial, often used for branding, partnerships, or general overviews.
  • Presentation: A flexible format used for thematic updates (e.g., product launches, ESG, industry outlooks) that don’t fall into routine financial events.
