8-K Exhibits provides the exhibits attached to a US company’s 8-K filings, newest first. Each observation is one exhibit. This is where the text lives: an 8-K cover page only lists item codes, and the press release that actually says what happened is an exhibit to it.

​
What You Can Use 8-K Exhibits For

Read the press release behind an earnings announcement or a management change in the company’s own words. Retrieve the exact prose behind a structured 8-K event. Feed a full release into a model for summarisation or extraction. For the filing’s facts as fields — who was appointed, how much was borrowed at what rate — use Structured 8-K Events instead. Same filings, structured.

​
8-K Exhibit Full Text Is Opt-In

include_body is false by default. Set it to true to get the exhibit text, and expect a smaller page: bodies run to tens of thousands of characters, and the default page size drops from 50 rows to 10 when bodies are included. chars is always returned, so you can see how much text sits behind a row before asking for it.

​
8-K Exhibits Coverage

Coverage is backfilled backwards, so the start date moves as older filings load. Read coverage.available_from on the response rather than trusting a date written on this page.An empty result for a filing older than the current floor is the feed’s start, not a company that filed no exhibits.

​
8-K Exhibits Date Convention

date_gte and date_lte filter on the filing date — when the 8-K reached the SEC. Rows are returned newest first.

​
Key 8-K Exhibit Fields

Each row carries the accession number of the filing, the 8-K item code the exhibit was filed under, the filing date, chars giving the body length, and the body itself when include_body is set. Common item codes are 2.02 for results of operations and 5.02 for a director or officer change.

​
8-K Exhibits Sources

Exhibits come from the 8-K filings themselves on SEC EDGAR. Text is stored as filed and is not summarised or rewritten.
